Perfect for you if...

You want to cook Italian food but get tired of guessing which wine won't clash with your dinner.
You enjoy both cooking and wine enough to care about the marriage between them, but don't need academic lectures.
You appreciate beautiful food photography and straightforward recipes that respect the ingredient list without pretending to be haute cuisine.

Maybe not for you if...

You're looking for ambitious restaurant-level techniques or modernist Italian cooking.
You prefer cookbooks that focus purely on recipes without wine pairing considerations.
You live somewhere wine selection is limited and pairings feel like a theoretical exercise.

About this book

Brian St. Pierre explores the regional wines and cuisines of Italy through recipes and wine pairings. Drawing on his experience as author of A Perfect Glass of Wine, St. Pierre presents dishes paired with Italian wines from different regions. Examples include a hearty barolo from Piedmont paired with pan-roasted veal tenderloin, pinot grigio from the Adriatic shores with risotto di frutti di mare, and primitivo from Apulia with slow-baked lamb. The cookbook also features dessert pairings, such as zuppa inglese with strawberries served with sparkling prosecco. The book includes a glossary of wine terms and photographs of both wines and dishes.
