Select a wine for food pairing

Warm Camembert cheese and mushrooms wrapped in phyllo pastry, served with arugula salad and chestnuts in syrup

The dish has a lot of textures and flavors. The first impact is made by the crispiness of the phyllo pastry, which gives way to the creaminess of the Camembert cheese; both these textures will be highlighted by the acidity and the freshness of the wine. The acidity of the wine plays the same role as the lemon in food; it emphasizes flavors and textures by waking up the taste buds. This game is complete with the balance attained by the bitterness of the arugula, the sweetness of chestnuts in syrup, the acidity of the balsamic vinegar, and the earthiness of the mushrooms.
