Barefoot Pinot Grigio

Beverages for socialising are usually uncomplicated, with easily approachable flavours that don’t necessarily need to be accompanied by food. They also include beverages that suit a party atmosphere.

Most salads and vegetarian dishes go well with a fresh and reasonably light wine. When pairing them with beer, the best options are pale, crisp and relatively light beers.

Pasta itself has a neutral flavour, so your choice of beverage will largely be influenced by the other ingredients, such as sauces, fillings and spices. To accompany pasta and pizza, it’s worth choosing a beverage that has the same level of richness as the food.

You can enjoy a broad range of beverages with savoury snacks. They are often served before the main meal, so your beverage should be mild and fresh.
