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. One wine you could try is Cecchi Chianti Classico. It has 4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 19 dollars.

Cecchi Chianti Classico

Chianti Classico is the flagship wine of the Cecchi family. The wine is characterized by an intense, ruby red color, which tends towards granite with aging. On the palate, it is harmonized by a dry, full flavor. On the nose, it is full, rich and vinous, characterized by hints of violets.
