I was experimenting and pairing few wines as they served pasta personally I loved FourSeasons Blush with the pasta the saffron based white sauce tasted absolutely yum...
Along with jamaican rub chicken Cabernet Sauvignon tasted top of the world the char bits from the chicken was so yumm normally i would pair a white wine with chicken but i am convinced red wines are totally in why not try something little bit different.. 
And what a sweet note to end our conversation with chocolate mouse, mixed fruit crumble, passion fruit reduction and a chocolate strawberry paired with Blush wine...
