I cook with wine. Sometimes I even add it to the food.
The Elegance of Chardonnay
First in our spotlight is the Chardonnay. Moldovan Chardonnays, with their balanced acidity and notes of green apple and citrus, provide the perfect canvas for a variety of fish dishes. Whether grilled, baked, or poached, Chardonnay complements with finesse.
Riesling: A Dance of Sweet and Savoury
For those seeking a touch of sweetness to contrast the saltiness of the sea, Rieslings step up to the plate. Their vibrant acidity and fruity notes of peach and apricot make them an enchanting partner for dishes like glazed salmon or spicy shrimp.
Sauvignon Blanc: Zesty and Fresh
Sauvignon Blanc lively acidity and green, grassy undertones make it a splendid match for lighter fish like sole or halibut. The bright flavours cut through richer sauces, offering a refreshing contrast.
Pinot Grigio: A Crisp Affair
The crisp, clean profile of Moldovan Pinot Grigio is a natural companion for a variety of seafood. Its citrusy notes and minerality beautifully enhance the flavours of oysters, clams, or grilled fish, creating a refreshing and uplifting pairing.
Feteasca Alba: A Moldovan Gem
Last but certainly not least, the Feteasca Alba offers a unique experience. With its floral aromas and notes of pear and apple, it gracefully complements dishes featuring lighter, flakier fish.
