5 Perfect pairings at Sibari you must try
1. Pairing: The art of finding balance
En el mundo de la gastronomía, el maridaje es mucho más que combinar comida y vino: es una danza de sabores, aromas y sensaciones que se potencian entre sí. En Sibari Medellín, este arte se eleva a otro nivel. Cada plato ha sido creado para acompañarse de una copa que realce su carácter, su textura y su historia.
Located in the heart of Provenza, Sibari has established itself as one of the main references for Mediterranean cuisine in El Poblado. Its concept fuses Italian tradition with Colombian soul, and its wine and cocktail list has been carefully curated to deliver complete experiences.
The result: combinations that surprise both wine experts and those who simply enjoy the pleasure of good food. Here are five unmissable pairings that will make your next visit to Sibari truly unforgettable.
2. Red wines and handmade pastas
Nothing represents Italian cuisine better than a plate of handmade pasta paired with a glass of red wine. At Sibari Medellín, pasta is prepared daily by hand, following traditional techniques from northern Italy. Its perfect texture and authentic flavor bring every sauce to life.
One of the restaurant’s signature pairings is Tagliatelle al Ragù — a recipe inspired by Emilia-Romagna — served with a Chianti Riserva from Tuscany. The wine’s medium body, cherry notes, and slight acidity complement the ragù’s richness beautifully.
This pairing embodies Sibari’s spirit: respect for tradition, quality ingredients, and a sensory experience that transports diners straight to an Italian trattoria, but with the modern and warm atmosphere of Medellín’s most elegant rooftop.
3. Fresh whites and mediterranean seafood
Sibari’s menu also celebrates the flavors of the sea, featuring a selection of fresh seafood prepared using Mediterranean techniques. For these dishes, white wines are the perfect companion — adding freshness, enhancing salinity, and balancing the richness of the sauces.
A perfect example is the Risotto ai Frutti di Mare, a classic Italian dish made with arborio rice, prawns, squid, and mussels. At Sibari, it’s paired with a Vermentino di Sardegna, a dry white wine with citrus and mineral notes that cleanses the palate and enhances the seafood’s nuances.
This pairing is an invitation to travel the Mediterranean coast without leaving El Poblado. Every bite evokes the sea, the sun, and the breeze, while the view from Sibari’s rooftop adds the finishing touch to a multisensory experience.
4. Rosés and gourmet pizzas
Rosé wines have evolved from being a “casual” choice to a sophisticated one. At Sibari Medellín, the pairing of gourmet pizzas and rosé wines is one of the local diners’ favorites.
The Pizza Prosciutto e Burrata, for example—with its sourdough base, San Marzano tomato sauce, Italian prosciutto, and fresh burrata—finds its perfect match in a Rosato del Veneto. This wine, with its red fruit and floral notes, complements the creaminess of the cheese and the intensity of the cured ham.
This type of pairing reflects the essence of Sibari: elegant yet approachable, traditional yet innovative. It’s ideal for sharing during a casual dinner, an after-office gathering, or a romantic date under the lights of Provenza.
5. Sparkling wines and irresistible desserts
A great ending is just as important as a great beginning, and Sibari Medellín knows it well. Its dessert menu combines Italian techniques with Colombian ingredients to create truly memorable sweets.
The undisputed favorite is the Sibari Tiramisu, made with authentic mascarpone, Colombian coffee, and a touch of Amaretto liqueur. Its soft texture and perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness are elevated with a glass of Prosecco Brut.
This pairing is light, refreshing, and elegant; the sparkling wine’s effervescence balances the creaminess of the dessert and cleanses the palate, leaving a pleasant sensation that invites longer conversations and a final smile.
6. Bold reds and premium meats
The last pairing on this list is a true sensory experience: Sibari’s premium cuts paired with full-bodied red wines. The restaurant offers dishes like Entrecot in Red Wine, served with balsamic reduction and rustic potatoes, or Filetto al Funghi Porcini, whose creamy sauce enhances the meat’s juiciness.
These plates pair perfectly with a Barolo from Piedmont or a high-altitude Argentine Malbec, both featuring firm tannins and woody notes that harmonize with the dish’s intensity.
This pairing represents the pinnacle of the Sibari experience: an elegant dinner on a rooftop overlooking Medellín, where wine and gastronomy become a universal language.
At Sibari Medellín, every pairing tells a story. Whether it’s handmade pasta with Chianti, risotto with white wine, or dessert with Prosecco, the experience goes beyond flavor — it’s a sensory journey that connects the Mediterranean with the paisa soul.
