Best wine moves

  • Chianti
  • Barbera
  • Pinot Grigio
  • Chardonnay

Why it works

Tomato sauce usually wants acidity. Cream sauce wants body plus enough freshness.

Simple formula

Match the weight of the food, then account for sauce, spice, salt, fat, and acidity. The best pairing is the one that makes the next bite and the next sip both taste better.
