A classic of Lombard cuisine meets the elegance of a refined sparkling wine
Risotto alla Milanese, with its golden color and rich flavor imparted by saffron, is a true celebration of Italian cuisine. Originally from Milan, this dish represents the essence of the Lombard culinary tradition. When it comes to food and wine pairings, risotto requires a wine that respects its delicacy and complexity. This is why today I propose a combination that celebrates both taste and tradition: Risotto alla Milanese combined with a Satèn Franciacorta.
Franciacorta Satèn: A Classy Choice
Franciacorta Satèn, known for its softness and delicacy, is a Lombard sparkling wine produced mainly with Chardonnay grapes. This wine is characterized by less pressure in the bottle, which gives it a silkier texture and a more subtle fizz than other sparkling wines. The delicate aromas of citrus fruits and white flowers, combined with notes of almond and fresh bread, make Franciacorta Satèn an ideal companion for risotto.
The Producer's Choice: Ca' del Bosco
For today's pairing, I suggest Franciacorta Satèn by Ca' del Bosco. This winery, renowned for its quality and innovation, produces a Satèn that stands out for its elegance and finesse. The care in winemaking and the attention to detail make Ca' del Bosco's Franciacorta Satèn a privileged choice.
Harmony on the Plate
The marriage between the Risotto alla Milanese and the Franciacorta Satèn of Ca' del Bosco is an example of balance and complementarity. The creaminess of the risotto, enriched by saffron, finds an ideal counterpoint in the freshness and light acidity of the wine. The delicate aromas of Satèn respect and enhance the simplicity of the risotto, creating a memorable tasting experience.
