Types of food – The perfect wine accompaniment for every dish 🍷🍽️

Every type of food has its very own flavours, textures and intensities – and there is a perfect wine to match. Whether with savoury meat dishes, fresh seafood, vegetarian creations or sweet desserts – the right combination takes the taste experience to a new level.

🔹 Meat dishes – From juicy steak to braised lamb – strong red wines are often the best choice here.
🔹 Fish & seafood – Fresh, light wines such as Sauvignon Blanc or Riesling emphasise the delicate flavours.
🔹 Vegetarian & vegan dishes – Whether creamy risotto or spicy vegetable pan – exciting wine combinations from white to red.
🔹 Cheese & antipasti – From mild to savoury – with the right wine accompaniment, every cheese platter becomes a highlight.
🔹 Desserts & sweet dishes – Whether fruity or chocolaty – sweet wines or sparkling wines are the icing on the cake.

Whether it’s a festive dinner or a cosy evening – with the right wine selection, every dish becomes a delight. Discover the best food pairings and find out which wine complements your dishes perfectly! 🍷✨
