Pasta and meatballs is a classic dish featuring tender pasta noodles and savory meatballs made from ground beef, herbs, and spices. The meatballs are simmered in a rich tomato sauce, which is then served over the pasta and topped with grated cheese. The result is a comforting and satisfying meal with a perfect balance of flavors and textures.
For pasta and meatballs in a rich tomato sauce, a medium-bodied Sangiovese or Chardonnay pairs well. Sangiovese's high acidity and savory notes complement the tomato sauce, while its moderate tannins balance the richness of the meatballs. Alternatively, a full-bodied Chardonnay with a creamy texture can match the dish's weight, while its subtle acidity cuts through the sauce. A sparkling rosé is another refreshing option.
