Food Pairing
Condiglione (Italian nicoise with tuna vinaigrette) is a quintessential dish of the Italian Riviera, the coast of Italy's northwest Liguria. Ligurian wine can be tough to find. Not a lot is produced, and wineries tend to be very small, selling most of their wine to the local market, leaving little for export. If you can’t easily find a bottle, don’t fear. With these dishes and other Ligurian inspirations, look for bright, refreshing, flavorful whites and drink them chilled on a summer night while imagining flower and herb-scented air over a gentle sea breeze.
