I will have to try this! I also like the fizzier options. I don't think I've ever had a sparkling with pizza yet--so many combinations to try! Sassicaia with pizza? I will have to try this!

The medium-dry version goes well with "normal" pizzas and a sweeter one is great with a spicy pizza. Have you considered Lambrusco (red, not rosé)?

Italians usually like to pair their pizza with a crisp Italian lager like Peroni or Nastro Azurro. As there endless amounts of wine and pizza I am huge fan of pairing both. Cab franc is one of my favorites and so is Montepulciano and Negroamaro. One night I actually drank a Sassicaia with some mediocre pizza from NJ, and let me tell you, it turned into the best pizza I ever had, lol.
