Aperitif

In-order to preserve your taste buds, you should avoid sweet wines and opt rather for White wines, Roses or Champagne.

Champagne will awaken your taste buds. Serve a Brut, Extra-Brut or a Rose.  The bubbles are aromatic and give the impression of freshness and complexity. 

Charcuterie: The tannins in the wine are softened, by the fatty character of the charcuterie therefore, charcuterie needs to be paired with a fresh red wine, such as a light Pinot Noir from Burgundy or a Chanti Classico or a fruity Barbera.
