Pesto Gnocchi
DESCRIPTION

Pesto Gnocchi is a flavorful dish featuring soft, pillowy gnocchi pasta tossed in a vibrant, aromatic pesto sauce made with fresh basil, garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese. The gnocchi is typically sautéed until lightly crispy on the outside, while remaining tender on the inside. The dish is finished with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan for added richness and depth of flavor.

WINE PAIRING

The aromatic pesto and soft, pillowy gnocchi in this dish pair well with a light-bodied white wine like Parellada. The wine's crisp acidity and subtle floral notes complement the herbaceous flavors of the pesto without overpowering the delicate gnocchi. Alternatively, a light-bodied Pinot Noir with its red fruit notes and soft tannins can also pair nicely, while a sparkling wine adds a refreshing effervescence to the dish.
