The potential problem here is with the “cream” of the mushroom soup. Otherwise it’s quite a match for Nebbiolo or Pinot Noir... Probably given the mushrooms, closer to Nebbiolo... BUT there’s the cream,... (9 replies, last updated by Chicago Mike December 27, 2006)

Any Nebbiolo wine calls for this glass, including Borolo, Barbaresco, Langhe Nebbiolo, Roero Nebbiolo, Langhe Rosso, Gattinara, etc. The Langhe Nebbiolos & Rossos are often in the $20 range and can be incredible, especially with... (6 replies, last updated by finlero March 13, 2009)

matches with truffle are Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo... and Nebbiolo is a consistent knockout wine with great beef... I would go with an interesting Nebbiolo here (barolo or barbaresco)... instead of a zinfandel... although I’m... (6 replies, last updated by Chicago Mike December 4, 2006)

i love nebbiolo-based wines with black truffles; nebbiolo would also work with the ravioli. for the other courses, i’d drink champagne (actually, you could drink champagne throughout)... (5 replies, last updated by Robert Lauriston January 13, 2006)

Babbo, Babbo and Babbo. Many posts here as to food. The wine list is very fairly priced – you can drink good Valtellina Nebbiolo for $30. I have never been to L’Impero, but it sounds to me like the only place that... (1 reply, last updated by jbeton April 16, 2005)

Stefano Farina (located in Diano d’Alba) is probably one of the best “value” producers of wines from the Piemonte region of Italy. You should be able to buy either their Barolo or Barbaresco wines (which are... (5 replies, last updated by DavidT July 20, 2005)

Ideally a Nebbiolo or Nebbiolo-Barbera blend. Of the reds you list, the Côtes du Rhône or the Dolcetto. I’d incline toward the latter, especially if the risotto had some cheese in it. For a white, the Vouvray’s... (10 replies, last updated by abe stein July 4, 2007)

I don’t know your particular Barolo, but I opened a 1999 Cascina Adelaide Barolo last night to go with a rack of lamb. I chose this particular Nebbiolo because I thought the bottle was leaking, but it wasn’t. I did not decant,... (1 reply, last updated by BN1 July 10, 2009)

Since this is a Truffle-Emphasis dinner, go with the two greatest “truffle grapes”: Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo. The list features both Calif and Oregon Pinot Noir from the 2004 vintage which was a bit better in Oregon so... (5 replies, last updated by Chicago Mike November 15, 2006)

Osso Bucco can and often is cooked with a dry white wine... served with a red. It is an exception to the general rule. IMO, the best pairing with a classic Osso Bucco is a Barbaresco or a Barolo. Less expensive, a generic Langhe... (10 replies, last updated by Elorian February 12, 2009)
