With its intense flavor, wild boar brings out the best in the roughness of artisanal pasta: from the famous and most classic pappardelle (considered the most classic and effective pairing) to any type of cut, long or short. Excellent paired with wines of strong and intense flavor, less suitable for more delicate and fruity varietals. also suitable are young reds, which enhance the intense flavor of the game.
