Chianti Classico

red · Sangiovese · Toscane · Italie — 16–18°C

Chianti Classico with cherry and tobacco notes echoes the concentrated tomatoes and herbs of pasta puttanesca, and its tannins balance the salty anchovies while letting the mild chili and capers breathe.

Greco di Tufo

white · Greco · Campanie · Italie — 10–12°C

Greco di Tufo, a volcanic Campanian white, offers a sharp alternative for puttanesca — its sulfur-tinged Vesuvian minerality stands up to the umami of anchovies and black olives, and its tension echoes the capers and Neapolitan oregano.

Aglianico del Vulture

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

Aglianico del Vulture, a volcanic southern red, has the tannic structure to absorb the concentrated salt of puttanesca's anchovies and Gaeta olives, and its ash notes converse with the sauce's chili.
