| History | The name Glarea comes from Rhaeto-Romanic and means gravel, a clear reference to the particular conformation of the soil from which this wine originates. |
| Pairings | Glarea is an all-rounder and can be paired with any first course that is savoury in flavour, from vegetable minestrone to spaghetti with clams. It tastes marvellous with tasty fish or delicate white meat dishes. Also try it with your pizza, especially if topped with buffalo mozzarella. |
