I used to believe that if you are serving wine to a teetotaler, any New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is your best bet. After tasting Fishing Cat Pinot Grigio a couple of years ago I came to the conclusion that this is the best affordable wine-it, light, juicy, fruity, crisp and pleasant and non-intrusive even for teetotalers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_lft\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-lft\" style=\"width: 219px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16558 size-medium\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 1px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58-219x300.webp\" alt=\"The Menu for the day crafted by Chef Matteo\" width=\"219\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58-219x300.webp 219w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58-747x1024.webp 747w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58-768x1053.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58-1120x1536.webp 1120w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58-1024x1404.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-09-58.webp 1167w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 219px) 100vw, 219px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-lft\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Menu for the day crafted by Chef Matteo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But there is a problem- after the first sip, you tend to finish off the glass, and soon ready for another chilled bottle at 8\u00b0C.

The ubiquitous wine is an excellent quaff and is an anytime- wine for a glass or two. No wonder it has ruled the Delhi restaurant market as the maximum selling wine for around 2 years, I was told by Sanjeev Gupta, the importer. Its pairing was excellent with Fritto Misto- a potpourri of Seafood including calamari and pieces of different fish that Chef Matteo had rustled up when I told him how I loved the Fritto Misto.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_lft\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-lft\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16575 size-medium\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 1px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1-300x223.webp\" alt=\"Pecorino for this Polenta dish\" width=\"300\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1-300x223.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1-1024x762.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1-768x572.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1-1536x1144.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/1.webp 1538w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-lft\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pecorino for this Polenta dish<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It was an excellent match with the first dish on the Menu-Capasante- Pan seared Scallops with Saut\u00e9ed Mushrooms and Porcini Consomm\u00e9 that elevated the flavour of the Plebeian Pinot!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_lft\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-lft\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16579\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 1px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 1px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4-300x169.webp\" alt=\"This wild mushroom Risotto went very well with Montepulciano d'Abruzzo\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4-1024x577.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4-768x433.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4-1536x866.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/4.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-lft\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This wild mushroom Risotto went very well with Montepulciano d&#8217;Abruzzo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>Fishing Cat Cabernet Sauvignon <\/b>was a delight for cabernet lovers who do not expect wonders in the wine that retails for under Rs. 1400 in the retail shops and about Rs.600-800 a glass in most of the restaurants in Delhi including AnnaMaya at Andaz.

But he is so involved and passionate about his cooking that he actually went much beyond the curated Menu. Curiously, <strong>the Montepulciano d\u2019Abruzzo<\/strong> did not pair very well with the Sea Bass and his favourite condiments- but this is my personal taste. I would have perhaps preferred with an-aubergine based lasagna or a mushroom dish as these two dishes match this red wine the best for my palate, though for me the dish would have tasted even better with Pecorino.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_lft\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-lft\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-11-21.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16594 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-11-21-300x169.webp\" alt=\"With Chef Mattteo Fracalossi \" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-11-21-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-11-21-1024x577.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-11-21-768x433.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-11-21-1536x866.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.indianwineacademy.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/whatsapp-image-2024-10-27-at-22-11-21.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-lft\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">With Chef Mattteo Fracalossi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Though AnnaMaya is an all-day restaurant where you find Indian cuisine and Italian food as well for Rs. 2500++ (alcohol extra at Rs. 1000++), Chef Matteo has been meticulously working on the \u2018Italization\u2019 of dishes with the Menu getting more and more Italian dishes. The Chef is currently working on the winter Menu that will be ready within a month and it should be worthwhile to visit exclusively an Italian Menu.<\/p>\n<p>But remember, you just can\u2019t have a Glass or a bottle of this Fishing Cat from the Italian coastal region of Abruzzo, so order at your own risk. I hope they will soon have a tasting flight of all 6 Fishing Cat variants, that has been the leading Italian wine being served in the 5-star hotels in Delhi because of the affordable price and quaffable quality with Italian food (not only!).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Subhash Arora &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
