Notes & Wine Advice

Serving Tip:
These ravioli pair wonderfully with creamy white sauces, especially a garlic and sage-infused cashew cream, which complements the fall flavors perfectly. A simple drizzle of olive oil and fresh parsley also works beautifully.
Wine Advice:
The creamy, earthy flavors of these ravioli are a perfect match for a light, crisp white wine. A dry Pinot Grigio from Italy would be a classic choice, with its bright acidity and subtle pear notes that will cut through the richness of the filling. For a slightly richer alternative, a buttery, unoaked Chardonnay would also work well, complementing the creaminess of the dish perfectly.
