Heirloom Tomato Spaghetti Sauce Recipe and Wine Pairing *

Fresh tomato sauce over a bed of your favorite pasta pretty much has it all – great texture, mouthwatering acidity, and a juicy sweetness. When adding wine to this already perfect equation, you don’t want to overpower the fruity nuances with something heavy and tannic. That’s why Frank Family’s Winston Hill Sangiovese is the obvious choice to pair with this sauce. Its medium body, fruit forwardness, and manageable tannins make it one of the most food-loving red wines in our collection. Thank you Chef Christina Machamer for sharing your delicious recipe with us!
