⚠️Common mistakes with Lasagne Bianca wine pairings
A strong Lasagne Bianca pairing is often about what you leave out as much as what you choose.
• Choosing by wine colour alone and overlooking the sauce, seasoning and cooking method in Lasagne Bianca.
• Going too heavy when the dish really needs enough texture for the sauce, but with the freshness needed to clear the palate.
• Serving the wine at room temperature by habit. Whites and sparkling wines need proper chilling, while most reds are better slightly cool.
