This list will help you choose the best wine to compliment your food!
1. Vegetable Pasta
In order to highlight the freshness of vegetables, choose a light-bodied white wine with bright, lemony and floral notes!
Sauvignon-Blanc
Gavi
Prosecco
Vermentino
Pinot Grigio
2. Tomato Pasta
Tomatoes are acidic which is why you’ll want to choose a medium-bodied red. The more meat and richness you add to the sauce however, the bolder and heavier you’ll want your red to be.
Primitivo
Sangiovese
Chianti
Negroamaro
Zinfandel
Montepulciano
3. Cheese Pasta
Wine and cheese are always a match made in heaven! A creamy cheese like ricotta or burrata will pair well with a white wine that has some creaminess to it (think oak-aged), like an Italian Chardonnay. Lighter red wines pair well with harder, sharper cheeses.
Italian Chardonnay
Trebbiano
Pinot Nero
Nebbiolo
Sangiovese
4. Seafood Pasta
Light to medium-bodied white wines are excellent for most seafood pastas. If there is tomato added to a seafood pasta it becomes a touch more acidic so a rosato (Rosé) wine is a great choice!
