Recommended wine: Chianti, Montepulciano, Sangiovese

Lasagne can be paired 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 Masia de la Luz Cava Brut with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.
