Finishing touch and presentation

Pairing
A refreshing and fruity wine requires pairings in keeping with its style, as very distinctive or strong flavours may overwhelm the wine. In this case, the acidity of the dish is the same as that of the wine and between the two they achieve an excellent taste complexity.
