Food pairings with fine wine and bubbles is the speciality of this glamorous enoteca (wine bar), champagneria (champagne cellar) and bistro in central Lucca. Pick from Italy's top sparkling wines – an Uberti or Bellavista Franciacorta Brut from Lombardy perhaps, a Ferrari Trento from Trentino-Alto Adige or a timeless prosecco DOC – or go French with a Pommery or Laurent Perrier champagne.
Gourmet crostini (toasts) topped with lardo di Colonnata, oysters from Brittany in France, caviar, salmon carpaccio spiked with Sicilian oranges, foie gras and black truffles are among the tasty savoury morsels to accompany drinks. Count €15/22 for a mixed cheese and salami tasting platter for one/two people.
