Let’s explore how to elevate your meal with a list of some of the best wines to pair with pinsa.

Meat and Mozzarella

For any meat lover’s pinsa preference, a medium to full-bodied red elevates the savory satisfaction in every bite. The bold taste profiles of these wines perfectly accompany the spices of sausage and pepperoni:

Chianti
- Fairly acidic and herbal
Cabernet Sauvignon
- Dry and darkly fruity
Zinfandel
- Medium-bodied and jammy

From fresh mozzarella on a classic margherita, to shredded mozzarella on an iconic cheese pinsa, this irresistible combo makes room for a satisfying sip to pair with. When sticking to the simplicity of mozzarella, you can’t go wrong with a light-bodied white wine:

Pinot Grigio
- Medium-dry and lightly fruity
Sauvignon Blanc
- Citrusy and herbaceous
Viognier
- Rich and aromatic

Prosecco

Chenin Blanc
- Floral and apple-like
Fiano
- Nutty and zesty
