Pinot Noir is a versatile wine: strong fruit notes, with hints of earthiness and spice, all wrapped up in a light body--this wine can match a wide range of food without overpowering the dishes.
Vegetables: With the sweet red fruit flavors of the wine, try matching with sweet vegetables like red pepper and ripe tomato.
Pasta: Light pink sauces and pestos balance the light body.
Fish: One of the few red wines that works well with fish, though it is best to pair it with heartier fish like tuna and salmon.
Poultry: This wine pairs well with the full range of light flesh of poultry. Chicken or turkey, prepared almost any way and even duck, goose, or pheasant.
Meat: With lean cuts of beef like filet mignon, or game meat, the fruitiness will balance well.
Cheese: Sweet, soft cheeses will work best, like blue and brie.
