Vermentino di Sardegna pairs best with seafood, including oysters, grilled prawns, and calamari, as well as dishes with fresh, herbaceous flavors like pesto and fennel. Its characteristic salinity, citrus notes, and hint of bitter almond complement the briny taste of seafood and cut through the richness of dishes like gyoza and seafood risotto. It also works well with white meats, artichokes, and fresh, soft cheeses such as ricotta and mozzarella.
