Wine pairing notes

The Har Gow style dumplings of Chef Li are very delicate and deserve the company of an elegant red sparkling wine as this Paltrinieri LaRiserva is. The freshness, its steely character and lively acidity makes a particularly good match with both the texture of the dumpling and the taste of the crab roe and shrimps.

The gentle hints of strawberries, raspberries, and some reminiscences of rhubarb, that is the typical fruits of the Lambrusco di Sorbara (here vinified using the Charmat method), further enhance the flavour of the dish, also thanks to its persistent bubbles.
