Recommended wine: Chianti, Montepulciano, Sangiovese

Lasagne can be paired with Chianti, Montepulciano, and Sangiovese. Lasagna pairs well with medium-bodied red wine with higher acidity. Sangiovese, Montepulciano, and Chianti all fit the bill. One wine you could try is Casaloste Chianti Classico Riserva. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 28 dollars.
