Be Inspired Wine Pairing – Swiss

Riex - Lake Geneva Vineyards - Vines

In collaboration with Roberto Dessanti of Euro Concepts

Complete your vicarious tour of Switzerland with these wines chosen to complement our Swiss menus

Switzerland produces delicious crisp white wines and soft reds that pair perfectly with the dairy-rich dishes of Swiss cuisine. Unfortunately, they’re virtually all consumed locally and rarely seen outside Switzerland. So Roberto’s given us four crisp white wines from neighbouring northern Italy. If I tasted them blind, I may just think they were Swiss!

Menu 1 – 2017 Kettmeir Müller Thurgau, Alto Adige-Südtirol DOC

From the German-speaking Italian region of Trentino Alto-Adige, which shares Switzerland’s Alpine love for all things dairy, comes this pale golden beauty. Its age gives it lovely depth to harmonise with the rich Gruyère and wine combo of this week’s fondue. I like a glass with the nüsslisalat too.

Menu 2 – 2021 Torre Rosazza Friulano, Friuli Colli Orientali DOC

There’s delicious crisp green apple on the nose and palate of this bright young wine from north-eastern Italy. It has a crunchy, slightly bitter finish, which balances the creamy mushroom sauce and harmonises with the fennel salad in this week’s geschnetzeltes menu.

Menu 3 – 2021 Torre Rosazza Pinot Grigio, Friuli Colli Orientali DOC

From the same producer comes this floral pinot grigio. Lighter and more aromatic than the friulano, with a touch of citrus and good length, it pairs beautifully with our delicate fish fillets in a rich butter sauce.

Menu 4 – 2021 Italo Cescon Chardonnay, Veneto IGT

Typical, yet restrained, buttery chardonnay notes make this my pick with our chicken voressen. The rich stone fruit aromas and mouth-filling palate work so well with the sweet carrots, crisp green peas and creamy chicken.

We made the pot-sticker dumplings and bang bang chicken from the Chinese class the other night. Once again both exceeded our expectations. My husband keeps saying it’s better than going out to restaurants as the recipes and quality are amazing.

The whole Be Inspired experience has helped me love cooking again. I was sick of cooking the same old things - meal time is a lot brighter thanks to you Roberta.

Your recipes are something I always feel confident offering guests and also reasonable in the time to prepare. We often try your recommended wines and suppliers and enjoy your travel tales too!

Thank you for stocking our pantry with such authentic ingredients and quality produce. We really like the flexibility of cooking over a couple of days and changing the order we cook the dishes in when we want to. And I love listening to the themed playlist while cooking.

I am absolutely loving Be Inspired! There are ingredients I have never worked with before so having the confidence to try something new is so much fun! The recipes are just amazing and the notes on what can be prep’d beforehand are a great help too. Thank you so much.

Awesome fun traveling through Emilia-Romagna experiencing first hand some of the produce I've worked with over the last couple of years cooking with Roberta's classes – the family are reaping the benefits now.

Food, wine and travel! Three of my favourite things! Be Inspired with Roberta has been a wonderful experience and given me more confidence in the kitchen. I have learnt so much, cooked things I never would have attempted without Roberta’s excellent videos, and used ingredients I have never tried before.

I'm a competent cook whose learned so much from Roberta's online cooking classes. The recipes are yummy and Roberta’s video guidance offers so many little tips to improve flavour and organise the flow of preparation. I enjoy her warmth, sense of humour, and ability to giggle at herself when she occasionally messes up.
