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. One wine you could try is Domaine Ravaut: Grand Cru Hautes Mourottes Pinot Noir Wine. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 79 dollars.

Domaine Ravaut: Grand Cru Hautes Mourottes Pinot Noir Wine

A reddish bronze tint reveals this wine's age, but it still has plenty of life. A deep, rich nose suggests ripe black cherries, clove, and cassis. After the wine has had time to breathe, it begins to reveal even more spice and fruit. Drinking beautifully now but likely to remain attractive through at least 2019.
