Instructions
Place potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain and cool, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
Combine the potatoes, cucumber, celery, onion, and olives in a large bowl.
Whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
Pour the dressing over the potatoes and vegetables; mix well. Season with salt and pepper, then chill. Stir the potato salad again before serving.
Recommended wine: Chianti, Verdicchio, Trebbiano
Chianti, Verdicchio, and Trebbiano are my top picks for Italian. 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 Berlucchi Franciacorta '61 Extra Brut with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 34 dollars per bottle.
