Here at Pasta Evangelists, we're firm believers that pasta is best enjoyed with a perfectly matched wine. Pick the right grape and the flavours of your dish will be elevated to a whole new level. Pick the wrong grape and the taste experience can be ruined. But don’t worry, we’ve got that part covered for you. Use our pairing wheel to find the perfect wine to complement your pasta dish.
SPIN THE WHEEL AND CHOOSE WHAT YOU FANCY
Meat
Whether it’s a bold beef or lamb-based ragù, tempting tortelloni stuffed with prosciutto or a piccante pasta sauce made with ‘nduja sausage, find wine pairings that will bring your pasta carne to life.
Milk, cheese, cream and butter – all you need for a comforting bowl of decadent, creamy pasta goodness. Find wine pairings for favourites including carbonara and cacio e pepe.
Discover our wine pairings for your favourite pasta e pesce. I frutti di mare, “the fruits of the sea”, are an Italian delicacy, from Linguine served with clams to parcels of ravioli filled with lobster and crab or Venetian salt-cod.
Simple but sublime, pasta with pesto is an Italian staple. Whether you’ve chosen classic pesto alla genovese, a vibrant sun-dried tomato variety, or an earthy-hued walnut number, we’ve got wines to complement your flavour palette.
From a punchy puttanesca or spicy arrabbiata to an authentic amatriciana, the Italians know how to handle their pomodori. Tomatoes form the base of many of our favourite sauces and we’ve selected the best wines to match each one.
From aubergine-based Norma sauce and pumpkin-stuffed ravioli to the humble delights of pasta all’ortolana, “greengrocer’s pasta”, seasonal vegetables are celebrated in many dishes. Complete this reverie with the perfect wine pairing.
