ITALIAN WINE PAIRINGS for Fall Potluck Meals – Our Recommendations

Did you know that potluck meals are a fan-favorite in Italy, just like in the United States? Combine the two and serve Italian wines at the next group gathering this fall.  Whether guests are bringing charcuterie, pasta, hearty stew or a dessert plate, you can be sure that the wines we recommend from Italy are ideal to enjoy.

Bring together friends, family, and food and wine enthusiasts for a delightful journey through the culinary wonders of the “Beautiful Country.” Transform your space into a charming trattoria as you plan a potluck meal that will long be remembered.  Here are four suggestions for food selections and Italian wines that pair wonderfully.

-Begin with antipasti like bruschetta topped with juicy tomatoes, fragrant basil, and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil (better paired with a wide and velvety Duca di Salaparuta Kados Grillo DOC 2021, made with one of the most versatile grapes of Sicily Buy here  $24.99.)
