Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio

Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio 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. You could try Castellani Chianti Annata. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 14 dollars per bottle.

Bright ruby red colored. The nose is intense and fruity with a violet fragrance and a slight hint of cherries and red currant. The palate is dry and balanced, lightly tannic which turns into velvety softness.Pairs well with delicious pastas to spicy pasta dishes. Ideal with roasts, steaks, and grilled veal.Blend: 90% Sangiovese, 10% Ciliegiolo
