Servings:

Recommended wine: Chianti, Montepulciano, Sangiovese

Lasagne on the menu? Try pairing with Chianti, Montepulciano, and Sangiovese. Lasagna pairs well with medium-bodied red wine with higher acidity. Sangiovese, Montepulciano, and Chianti all fit the bill. The Tenuta di Capraia Chianti Classico with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.

Tenuta di Capraia Chianti Classico

Chianti Classico Tenuta di Capraia is a wine with an optimal complexity and structure. Ruby red color with violet tinges. Intense and rich aroma, vinous, fruit-driven. Pleasant cherry notes, refreshing and well-balanced with hints of integrated vivid tannin.
