Recommended wine: Chianti, Verdicchio, Trebbiano

Pasta Primavera can be paired with Chianti, Verdicchio, and Trebbiano. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. The Il Palagio When We Dance Chianti with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.

Il Palagio When We Dance Chianti

Aromas of ripe black cherries, sandalwood, cedar and strawberry compote. Texturally even and balanced bright acidity, juicy fruits and a joyful, lingering sense of the vineyards at Il Palagio. Perfect for combining with traditional Tuscan recipes.Blend: 90% Sangiovese , 5% Canaiolo, 5% Colorino
