Wine Pairing at Vinotheque
Where Great Food Meets Even Greater Wine
When you step into Vinotheque, you’re not just dining—you’re embarking on a flavour journey that’s thoughtfully curated to excite your palate. With our extensive wine list, there’s something for everyone, whether you’re a wine aficionado or just someone who appreciates a good glass paired with a great meal.
Kickstart the Evening
Why not start your evening with something light? Our Cava Brut Prosecco is the perfect companion to Moules Mariniere, a dish where tender mussels are bathed in white wine, scallions, parsley, and garlic. The crisp bubbles of the Prosecco amplify the fresh, briny taste of the mussels, creating a refreshing contrast that wakes up your senses.
Sharing Moments
Sharing is all about connection, and our sharing platters are made for just that. If you’re digging into our Vinotheque Chef’s Recommended Platter, filled with fine cheeses and charcuterie, reach for the Chatelain Desjacques, Rosé D’Anjou. This rosé is like summer in a glass, with its fresh, fruity notes of strawberry and raspberry. It’s smooth and just a little sweet, perfect for cutting through the richness of the platter while adding a delicate touch to each bite.
The Local Vibe
For something that screams local, our Stewed Klamar Mimli Bit-Tonn is where it’s at. Stuffed squid with tuna, capers, olives, and anchovies brings all those bold, Mediterranean flavours to the table. Pair it with Antonin Blanc, a local Chardonnay from Gozo that’s aged in oak barrels. This wine has just the right mix of vanilla warmth and citrusy brightness to match the hearty, savoury notes of the squid, creating a pairing that feels both familiar and surprising.
Earthy Delights
If you’re a fan of mushrooms, our Ravioli De Cepes Aux Champignons is going to be your new favourite. This dish is all about rich, earthy flavours, with porcini mushrooms and truffle paste taking centre stage. The best wine to match? Villa Maria, Pinot Noir from New Zealand. This red brings a mix of lightness and depth, with a hint of berries and spice that lifts the dish without overpowering it. It’s the kind of pairing that feels like it was always meant to be.
End on a High
There’s no better way to round off your meal than with something meaty and satisfying. Our Entrecôte De Boeuf, a perfectly grilled rib-eye, demands a wine that can stand up to its bold flavours. Enter Bodega Norton, Malbec from Argentina. This wine is all about rich fruit and a silky finish, making it the ideal match for the rib-eye’s robust taste. Each sip brings out new layers in the beef, turning every bite into a moment to savour.
The Vinotheque Experience
Dining at Vinotheque is about more than just food and wine; it’s about the whole experience.

We take the art of pairing seriously, but we also believe in keeping things fun and approachable. After all, the best pairings are the ones that make you smile, whether you’re a wine expert or just someone who loves a good meal.
