Cesanese del Piglio

red · Cesanese · Latium · Italie — 16–18°C

Cesanese del Piglio, Lazio's only red DOCG, is the absolute terroir pairing for coda alla vaccinara — its spicy black fruit and round tannins embrace the 4-hour braised oxtail, and its wild herbs support the celery, bitter cocoa and raisins of the Roman sauce.

Aglianico del Vulture

red · Aglianico · Basilicate · Italie — 16–18°C

Aglianico del Vulture, a volcanic red with powerful tannins, is built for coda alla vaccinara — its acidity and structure absorb the deep fat of the slow-stewed oxtail, and its ash and leather notes echo the bitter cocoa signature of Rome's quinto quarto.

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva

red · Montepulciano · Abruzzes · Italie — 16–18°C

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva, fleshy and velvety, accompanies coda alla vaccinara generously — its polished tannins envelop the collagen-rich oxtail, and its black fruit and licorice complement the sweet-sour raisins and pine nuts of the traditional sauce.
