THE DROP

The key ingredients that need to be considered for this match are the anchovy, pancetta, three different proteins, parmesan, nutmeg and the tomato-rich passata. Wine options include gamay, montepulciano, Greek red wine, full-bodied chardonnay with a new oak component or a contrasting rosé packed with fresh fruit flavours, high acid and simple complexity. An excellent match for this dish is Beach House Wines Montepulciano 2019, grown on the Gimblett Gravels soils in Hawke’s Bay. RRP $30.
