Recommended wine: Chianti, Verdicchio, Trebbiano

Italian 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 Tenuta di Nozzole Chianti Classico Riserva ( Magnum) with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 45 dollars per bottle.

Tenuta di Nozzole Chianti Classico Riserva ( Magnum)

Cherry and violet aromas, persistent and rounded flavors of spices and mushroom. Great structure with elegant finesse.Pairs well with meats and meat pasta sauces, poultry and hard cheeses.
