Here are a few wine recommendations. Please keep in mind that wine is a personal taste, one man’s pleasure is another man’s poison. In other words, don’t hate me if you buy one of these and hate it. These are all pretty easy-to-find, decent priced wines. Salute!

Monte Antico–Red wine– this is a consistently good Sangiovese blend from Tuscany and you can usually get it for around $10

Bertani Secco Bertani Valpolicello– Red wine– pairs well with meats and poultry, its a great sipping wine

Bertani Due Uve– White wine– a blend of Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon blanc, its nice and crisp

Melini Chianti Classico Isassi– Red wine– a very approachable Chianti that pairs well with almost any kind of Italian food

Santa Anastasia Nero d’Avola– Red wine– My aunt’s favorite wine, its a great value, packs in a lot of fruit and flavor for around $10

Argiolas Vermentino– White wine– pairs great with sea food

Feudi di San Gregorio Falanghina–White wine– One of my all time favorite whites, it was meant to be paired with sea food, there’s nothing better with pasta and clams

Zardetto Prosecco–Sparkling white wine– yummy bubbles that don’t cost too much
