Calzone is a folded pizza-like dish filled with a savory mixture of onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, and olives, along with melted mozzarella, cheddar cheese, and pepperoni. The filling is encased in a crispy pizza dough shell and baked until golden brown. The result is a warm, gooey, and flavorful pocket bursting with Italian-inspired ingredients.

For a baked Calzone filled with savory ingredients like pepperoni, cheese, and vegetables, a sparkling white wine like Cortese or a light-bodied red like Sangiovese would pair nicely. The bubbles in the sparkling wine will cut through the richness of the cheese and complement the acidity of the tomato sauce, while the red's bright fruit and acidity will balance the dish's flavors.
