There’s something truly special about the way fresh mussels transform in a rich, simmering sauce of garlic, chili, and tomatoes—especially when elevated by a generous pour of Gratsi White. The crisp, citrusy notes of the wine enhance the natural brininess of the mussels, creating a perfectly balanced dish bursting with flavor.

As they steam, the mussels drink in the garlicky tomato broth, becoming irresistibly tender while the wine adds just the right touch of brightness and depth. Simple, rustic, and absolutely delicious!
