Antipasti

Antipasti typically consists of a variety of cured meats, cheeses, marinated vegetables, and olives, creating a diverse flavor profile with savory, tangy, and salty notes. Light, crisp wines with good acidity help cut through the richness of the meats and cheeses, while refreshing beers with moderate carbonation cleanse the palate between different components.
