Red · Full · Dry
Nebbiolo from a single corner of Piedmont, slow-aged into something legendary. Tar and roses, dried cherry, leather; tannins that take a decade to soften. Decant; pair with truffle, braise, or aged hard cheese.
Why it works with Tortellini White Truffle
Nebbiolo with white Alba truffles is the Piedmontese ritual — tar, rose, and umami.
Red · Medium · Dry
Pinot Noir (red) or Chardonnay (white) from the world's most expensive dirt. Translucent, perfumed, ethereal at the top of the hierarchy; honest and pleasant lower down. Drink slowly, with reverence.
Why it works with Tortellini White Truffle
Burgundian Pinot and truffles are the apex pairing — both about earth, restraint, and depth.
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 Tortellini White Truffle
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 Tortellini White Truffle
Clean white that works with cream-sauce and seafood pasta.
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 Tortellini White Truffle
Italy's table wine for Italy's table dish — Sangiovese acid meets tomato sauce naturally.
