Italian food in Haarlem

A good restaurant in Haarlem with Italian food obviously has a wide selection of wines. We usually opt for wine when we dine extensively, but did you know that a glass of wine also tastes great at a wood-fired pizza takeaway? A carefully selected wine brings out the pure taste of the wood oven and the organic ingredients even more. It is also a well-known fact that, for example, Sangiovese wines bring out the taste of tomatoes better. We therefore recommend this wine, from the grape of the same name from Tuscany, with lasagna, parmigiana and our vegetarian pizzas. If you opt for a dish that has a stronger taste of its own, such as pasta bolognese or a pizza with Parma ham or bacon, a Montepulciano is a better match. Montepulciano wines are extremely tasty wines made from grapes from Abruzzo. If you prefer a smooth wine that goes with almost any kind of Italian food and is appreciated by everyone, you will certainly score with a Primitivo. Our Primitivo from the manduria grape from Puglia has a firm body that supports the taste of the dish, without being overpowering.

If you are not sure which wine to choose, you can ask us when you order. We are happy to assist you with wine advice. They know exactly how each wine tastes and with which dish it goes best. We not only have red wines, but also white wines, dessert wines and rosés. Just like our ingredients, our wines are traditionally aged and bottled according to Italian traditions.
