Recommended wine: Barbera Wine, Chianti, Montepulciano

Barbera Wine, Chianti, and Montepulciano are my top picks for Chicken Parmesan. When chicken is paired with tomato sauce and cheese, it can handle a light or medium bodied red wine. Since this is an Italian-American dish, we went for Italian wines. You could try Enrico Serafino Barbera d'Alba. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 19 dollars per bottle.

Enrico Serafino Barbera d'Alba is the winery's leading red, a very versatile wine that is particularly food-friendly and can be enjoyed on a daily basis. Barbera is Piedmont's most popular red grapevariety, grown in and among other vineyards throughout the region. Enrico Serafino's vineyards are located inside Roero DOCG, a famous denomination for Nebbiolo (and white Arneis) wines. These Barbera vineyards enjoy the same excellent terroir, in sites that are best suited for Barbera.
