Recommended wine: Lambrusco, Riesling, Chenin Blanc

Lambrusco, Riesling, and Chenin Blanc are great choices for Macaroni and Cheese. With rich, cheesy mac & cheese you'll want to cleanse the palate with something crisp and acidic. We recommend Chenin Blanc, Riesling, or dry Lambrusco if you're in the mood for a red. One wine you could try is Medici Ermete Concerto Lambrusco Reggiano. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 23 dollars.

Intensely ruby red with pleasant aromas that are persistent and fruity. Dry but fruity at the same time. Soft and fresh on the palate.
