Wine With Pizza Is Like Beer With Fish & Chips ... It's Meant To Be
Everyone loves pizza and ZYN will help you discover the perfect wine pairings for your pizza.
Pepperoni Pizza
Pepperoni has a very strong flavour and a high fat content, so you will need a strong wine with intense flavours to counterbalance the pepperoni effect. Sangiovese from Italy is a great choice or perhaps a Shiraz.
Margherita Pizza
With the fresh basil, tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella, a rose wine such as Whispering Angel fits the bill. If red wine is your preference, stick to a Pinot Noir.
Hawaiian Pizza
A slightly sweet Riesling will match surprisingly well. The acidity in the Riesling acts as a palate cleanser and the sweetness of the wine will elevate your ham and pineapple experience to a new level.
BBQ Chicken Pizza
BBQ is many things, but on a pizza it has a sweeter, smokey kick which pairs very well with an Argentine Malbec. Malbec tends to be fruit forward which is what you are looking for when pairing with a sweeter style BBQ sauce. Bramare Malbec is the perfect choice.
