Wine with—Pizza

It appears that Italians—especially those running restaurants--aren’t big on vino with pizza. There is one pretty obscure exception: Gragnano, a frizzante red that comes from the town of the same name outside of Naples.

Served chilled, Gragnano has a touch of sweetness and a slight effervescence that cuts the fattiness of oil and cheese. . It is now on the menu of New York City based restaurants Una Pizza Napoletana, Motorino, and Zero Otto Nove. If you don't want to "do" restaurants, it costs $15-17 at local wine stores.
