Stuffed Meatloaf with Provolone, Mushrooms and Spinach
A “roll” of meatloaf that goes very well with the Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Valore di Famiglia 2021 Famiglia Cecchi, because the acidity of Sangiovese cleanses the mouth of fattiness and succulence (meat and cheese) while the wine’s spicy notes...

Leek and lemon zest risotto

Cream of chickpea soup with clams
A cream of chickpea soup with clams is a delicate dish but with a double soul: the creaminess and sweetness of the legumes and the marine savoriness of the clams. It needs a wine that has freshness and savoriness to...
