White · Full · Dry

California's flagship white — rounder, riper, and oakier than the Old World original, with tropical fruit, butter, and vanilla. Sonoma Coast and Sta. Rita Hills bottlings are leaner; Napa stays plush.

Northern Italian red with bright acid handles pasta with tomato or meat sauce.

Chianti

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

Chianti is the pasta wine of choice — cherry, leather, cleansing acid.

White · Medium · Dry

Chardonnay grown on Burgundy's chalkiest soils, almost never oaked. Lean, steely, oyster-shell minerality; a wine that tastes like a place. The wine for shellfish, full stop.

French Chablis's stone fruit and quiet structure flatter Pasta With Cilantro, Peas And Smoked Salmon's natural sweetness.

White · Light · Dry

Why it works with Cilantro Pasta

Clean white that works with cream-sauce and seafood pasta.

Sangiovese

Classic

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.

Italy's table wine for Italy's table dish — Sangiovese acid meets tomato sauce naturally.

White · Medium · Dry

A medium-bodied dry white in the European tradition — crisp acid, citrus and orchard fruit, a clean mineral finish. Pairs reliably with most lighter dishes.
