Pairing: Due to its more delicate nature and red berry profile is perfect for many wine and food pairings. Pinot Noir matches well with duck, pork, veal, chicken, squab, tuna, salmon, and other meaty fishes. It’s also a perfect match for Asian cuisine. Depending on the dish, and its seasoning or dipping sauces, Pinot Noir works well with many sushi or Sashimi dishes. Due to its high level of acidity, PN wines stand up to foods and sauces that are higher in acidity, in addition, it pairs well with a myriad of different hard and soft cheeses as well.
