The Wine Experience       
Italian Food and Wine   

Italian food seems like everybody's favorite!

Here are a couple of Italian wine and food ideas for you.

Paparadelle is wide, flat pasta traditional in Tuscany.   When tossed with a meat sauce made with ground beef and pork, a little tomato and herbs, it's perfect with a silky and rich Brunello from Montalcino.

Beef steak Fiorentine is a two inch thick t-bone.   It's seasoned with olive oil and garlic, salted and peppered.  

Sear it over hot coals and brush again with olive oil when you serve.  

Cooked to medium rare,   it just shouts for the super Tuscan choice of sangiovese and cabernet sauvignon.

Then there's pizza.   Chianti Rufina is always great with pizza.   The bright cherry flavor and zing loves melted cheeses and virtually any topping you like.

Putting wine and food together is easy if you remember to keep the food style and wine region together.  

So go "Italy squared" and enjoy!
