Recommended wine: Chianti, Montepulciano, Sangiovese

Chianti, Montepulciano, and Sangiovese are great choices for Lasagne. Lasagna pairs well with medium-bodied red wine with higher acidity. Sangiovese, Montepulciano, and Chianti all fit the bill. The Vignamaggio Chianti Classico Monna Lisa Gran Selezione with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 39 dollars per bottle.

Vignamaggio Chianti Classico Monna Lisa Gran Selezione

The wine is only produced in the best vintage years, with grapes from the farm's prime southwest grape growing areas. It is a deep ruby red color. The aroma is very intense, persistent, delicate, with hints of tobacco, oak and berries. A full, long, warm mouth feel.
