Recommended wine: Chianti, Montepulciano, Barbera Wine
Chicken Parmesan works really well with Chianti, Montepulciano, and Barbera Wine. 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. The Tenuta di Capraia Chianti Classico with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.
