Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio

Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio are great choices 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. The Casan Emma Chianti Classico with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 21 dollars per bottle.

Casa Emma Chianti Classico D.O.C.G is an elegant wine with a floreal bouquet and cherry hints. It has a balanced freshness, good structure and velvety tannins. Aged for 1 year in 500 liter barrels, it has an intense ruby red color with purple reflections. With a lingering finish with good acidity and minerality, it is perfect to pair with pasta and cold cuts.
