Greco di Tufo
Greco di Tufo, a Campanian volcanic white, is the absolute Neapolitan pairing for spaghetti alle vongole — its sulfur-tinged Vesuvian minerality echoes the iodine taste of the clams, and its citrus tension lifts the olive oil, garlic and parsley without masking the shellfish's delicacy.
Falanghina del Sannio
Falanghina del Sannio, an airy and saline Campanian white, is the refreshing companion for vongole — its salinity meets the clam broth, and its lime freshness cuts the spicy pepperoncino that wakes up the al dente linguine.
Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi
Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi, an iodine-tinged Adriatic white, is the coastal counterpart for vongole — its precise acidity and noble green almond bitterness accompany clams in clear broth, and its maritime minerality amplifies the taste of the sea.
