Notes & Wine Advice

Wine Advice:

This seafood risotto pairs beautifully with a light and crisp white wine such as Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay. The wine’s acidity will complement the richness of the seafood and enhance the flavors of the dish. For a non-alcoholic option, consider serving with sparkling water infused with a splash of lemon or lime.
