Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio
Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio are my top picks for Italian. 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. One wine you could try is Spalletti Chianti Reserve Poggio Reale. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 23 dollars.
Spalletti Chianti Reserve Poggio Reale
This superb reserve wine, produced exclusively from the Poggio Reale estate, is a graceful, velvety wine with the characteristically earthy Sangiovese aromas and ripe, balanced fruit flavors offset by a touch of oak.
