Recommended wine: Chianti, Verdicchio, Trebbiano

Chianti, Verdicchio, and Trebbiano are my top picks for Ravioli. 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 Podere Il Palazzino Chianti Classico Argenina with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.

Podere Il Palazzino Chianti Classico Argenina
Chianti Classico Argenina is ruby red in color. The nose is fresh and fruity with notes of red berries and plum. On the palate, fresh, quite soft, medium bodied, round, quite intense and persistent, with a fruity finish
