Red · Medium · Dry
Piedmont's everyday red and Italy's secret food wine — high acid, low tannins, juicy red cherry, and a touch of earth. Pairs effortlessly with anything red-sauce.
Works with Arrabiata Sauce · Pasta Arrabiata
Sparkling · Light · Dry
Spain's traditional-method sparkling, made in Catalunya. Crisper and chalkier than Prosecco; remarkable value next to Champagne. Pair with jamón, tortilla, and grilled vegetables.
Works with Arrabiata · Past Arrabiata
White · Medium · Dry
The most-planted white grape and the most chameleon-like. Crisp and steely from Chablis; rich, oaky, and tropical from California. Read the label, then match the style to the dish.
Works with Arrabiata · Past Arrabiata
Red · Medium · Dry
Sangiovese from Tuscany's historic heartland — denser fruit, longer finish, and a structure that rewards aging. The pizza wine, elevated.
Works with Arrabiata Sauce · Pasta Arrabiata
Red · Medium · Dry
Italian red wine, broadly — Sangiovese, Nebbiolo, Barbera, Montepulciano, Aglianico, or a regional blend. Always built around food.
Works with Arrabiata Sauce · Pasta Arrabiata
Red · Light · Dry
Burgundy's most temperamental grape, but the rewards are real — translucent ruby with a perfumed lift of red cherry, forest floor, and clove. Silken tannins and bright acid make it the most versatile red on the table; serve cool, around 58°F.
Works with Arrabiata · Past Arrabiata
Rosé · Light · Dry
Provence's gift to summer — dry, pale, faintly strawberry-and-citrus, with low alcohol and crisp acid. Made to drink cold, with food, in the shade.
Works with Arrabiata · Past Arrabiata
Red · Medium · Dry
Tuscany's everyday red, made from Sangiovese — cherry, leather, and a brisk acidity that makes tomato-based dishes sing. The Classico designation marks the historic heartland and a step up in quality.
Why it works with Penne All Arrabiata
Chianti is the pasta wine of choice — cherry, leather, cleansing acid.
White · Light · Dry
Italy's everyday white — light, lemony, neutral by design. Pleasant with anything; profound with very little. The best Friuli bottles are quietly excellent.
Why it works with Penne All Arrabiata
Clean white that works with cream-sauce and seafood pasta.
Red · Medium · Dry
A medium-bodied dry red in the European tradition — bright red fruit, soft tannins, and a savory finish. The everyday house wine of much of southern Europe.
Why it works with Penne Arrabiata
For Penne Arrabiata, reach for Red — its acid handles the sauce, its tannins handle the cheese.
Red · Medium · Dry
The soul of Tuscany — bright red cherry, dried herbs, and a savory line of acidity that craves tomato sauce. Chianti is the everyday face; Brunello is its serious cousin.
Why it works with Penne All Arrabiata
Italy's table wine for Italy's table dish — Sangiovese acid meets tomato sauce naturally.
White · Light · Dry
Citrus, cut grass, and a wire of acid. Marlborough makes it loudest; Sancerre makes it most refined. Either way, it cuts cleanly through goat cheese, herbs, and anything with shellfish.
Why it works with Pasta Arrabiata
Sauvignon Blanc's bright acid lifts Pasta Arrabiata cleanly — the lean white strategy.
