Pour: Chad Ellegood, wine director for Tru in Chicago, recommends a Cavalchina Bardolino Chiaretto or Alma de Blanco Godello Monterrei to enhance the bold Mediterranean flavors of this dish. The Cavalchina is a fresh rose from northeastern Italy that offers a combination of fruit blossoms and light berries. The Alma de Blanco is made from the Godello grape, which is indigenous to northwestern Spain and complements its high acidity with ripe citrus flavors.
