All You Can Steak Wines: a pairing guide

There's a secret for making your All You Can Steak experience truly unforgettable: the pairing between the juiciness of grilled meat and the taste of the right wine. Whether you're aiming for a Bistecca alla Fiorentina or our classic mixed grill made of sausages and pork shoulder, our cellar has the perfect choice for every need.

Whites and Rosés: Freshness and Opening

Never underestimate a white or a rosé with meat, especially when we're talking about flavourful pork cuts or appetizers.

  • Vernaccia di San Gimignano DOCG "Fantastic Garden" — let's open with our most popular wine branded Fantastic Garden. An absolute must-have: a savoury and dry Tuscan classic, straight from the beautiful town of San Gimignano. Perfect for "cleaning" the palate between courses.
  • Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc (Bottega Vinai) — straight from Trentino, these whites bring elegance and acidity. Chardonnay pairs beautifully with white meats, while Sauvignon Blanc goes well with spiced dishes.
  • Gewürztraminer Sauvignon Blanc — an aromatic explosion that surprises with the fattier cuts of pork.
  • Vermentino Caccia al Palazzo Bolgheri — mineral and vibrant, the ideal partner if you start with charcuterie boards.
  • Riesling Langhe Ca' Viola — a gem from Piemonte with a sharp freshness, excellent for cutting through the richness of pork ribs.
  • Rosato Rita (Langhe) and Rosato Caccia al Palazzo (Bolgheri) — rosés are the wildcards: they have the freshness of a white but the body to handle grilled pork shoulder.

Red Wines: The Soul of the Embers

Let's go to the heart of the matter. Grilled red meat demands tannins and structure.

  • Chianti DOCG "Fantastic Garden" — Sangiovese is the undisputed king of the Tuscan table, even more when the label is ours! Perfect for sausages and steak, at an accessible price with no compromise on quality.
  • Chianti Classico Bibbiano — Bibbiano's Classico has that extra gear for a sliced "tagliata".
  • Pinot Nero Trentodoc — delicate and silky, for those looking for a soft red that doesn't overpower the meat.
  • Rosso di Montalcino Tenuta Ricci — Brunello's "younger brother", fresh and juicy, ideal for a mixed grill.
  • Bolgheri Rosso Caccia al Palazzo — an international blend that brings softness and intensity, perfect for our succulent pork ribs.
  • Chianti Riserva and Montornello Gran Selezione (Bibbiano) — complex structure for those seeking excellence.
  • Nebbiolo Langhe, Barbaresco and Barolo (Ca' Viola) — Piedmont meets the grill. These wines demand important meats: Barolo and Barbaresco are the elective companions of noble, aged cuts.
  • Brunello di Montalcino DOCG — the Legend. A majestic wine that pays tribute to the most authentic Tuscan tradition, the perfect partner for our Bistecca alla Fiorentina.

Our Advice for the All You Can Steak Concept

If you want to play it safe and get the most out of our cuts, here are our staff's recommendations.

1. Sausages and Ribs

These cuts are fatty and flavourful: you need a wine with good acidity to "cut through" the richness.

Top Pick: Chianti DOCG "Fantastic Garden" or Riesling Ca' Viola.

2. Scamerita (Pork Shoulder)

A marbled, tasty meat that loves medium-bodied wines.

Top Pick: Rosato Caccia al Palazzo or Rosso di Montalcino Tenuta Ricci.

3. Bistecca alla Fiorentina

The sacred monster of the grill demands structured wines, capable of standing up to the protein and fat of beef.

Top Pick: do you want tradition? Chianti Classico Bibbiano is what you are looking for. If you prefer a luxury experience, Brunello di Montalcino or Barolo Ca' Viola are for sure the best options. The tannins of these wines bind to the meat's proteins, making every bite incredibly tender.

Pick your winning combination. We'll take care of the rest!
