Burrata cheese, baked vegetables and apples, cured ham and pesto

An excellent combination of flavors and colors. The sweetness provided by the apple, the zucchini and the pumpkin is balanced by the subtle bitterness of the eggplant. In addition, there is the unique touch of the cured ham, which causes the exaltation of the other components with its characteristic salty taste. The fruity nose of the wine matches well with the fruit and vegetables of the dish, the salt of the cured ham increases the sense of acidity and freshness, and the body of the wine joins the burrata to attain great silkiness. Finally, the pesto contributes green notes and high freshness.
