Little indigenous varietal from Emilia-Romagna. It is a white wine with a nice depth of fruit but heavy on the acidity. I believe it is normally made as a spumante but Cesari makes a still one. Basically when people come into the wine bar asking for beer I give them an Albana and they are quite happy. And for red I would stick with the cold stuff and do a sangue di giuda from Oltrepo Pavese. It's a naturally sparkling red from uva rara and croatina; both od which, I believe are rlated to bonarda. Not sure though. EvWg I know it isn’t easy to find but Albana for white. Little indigenous varietal from Emilia-Romagna. It is a white wine with a nice depth of fruit but heavy on the acidity.

It should have enough acidity to stand up to the grease and bitterness of all components. Nora Albariño, if we want to keep things on a lighter note. A nice Chianti should also do the trick. Trust me, give it a shot. Salud! I’d go for:
