Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio

Italian can be paired with Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio. 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. You could try Barone Ricasoli Castello di Brolio Chianti Classico Gran Selezione. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 60 dollars per bottle.
