THE BEST PIZZA WINES!

Pizza and Wine. It's a match made in heaven! There's nothing quite like the perfect wine to elevate your pizza to the next level, but how do you choose the best wine to pair with your favorite pizza?

Here at Reverse Wine Snob, we're making it easy with our giant list of all the best wines to pair with pizza. From the no-brainers to the unconventional, we cover them all and almost all of them are under $20! (Although we do also throw in a few over $20 selections for when you want to splurge.)

If you're eating a classic, red sauce pizza then there are a few wine varieties that really stand out and pair beautifully. One of our top choices would be Barbera. With its distinctive cherry notes and high acidity, this variety shines with anything featuring tomato sauces.

Of course, with pizza being Italian there are lots of other Italian wines that work equally as well. From Sangiovese based wines like Chianti and Brunello, to Aglianico, to the Sicilian Nero d'Avola, we have plenty of recommendations from Italy on our list below.

And while all these Italian varietals are certainly our stand-bys, it's also fun to get a creative with your choices. Zinfandel can be a great pick, especially if your pizza has any BBQ influence. Red blends can also be another great place to look, especially GSM (Grenache-Syrah-Mourvedre) blends.

And it's not just red wines that pair wonderfully with pizza, white wines can work too! Pinot Grigio would probably be our go-to, but depending on the toppings (chicken, veggies or even salad), many other varieties will also work - everything from Chardonnay to Sauvignon Blanc, especially if you're using a white sauce.

And lastly, don't forget how food friendly both rosé and sparkling wines can be for an even more unconventional, yet delicious, pairing.

As always, our best advice is simply to explore to see what combinations work for you! To help get you started, read on for some of our favorites under $20 and a few over $20 "Saturday Splurges".
