Damn! This is a great wine. Had some at Christmas, with fettucini and meatballs, in tomato sauce.

Not something an italian would eat. Even less with Carignano del Sulcis.
Shows what you know....you live in Fascist-land!
Look, dumbass: The more complex the wine, the simpler the food should be.

How you can be considered an expert about anything is beyond comprehension...

Mike is an Italian... Fascist-land is Italy, btw, but he lives in France,afaik.
You are confusing, at times, and I'm confused this time: Wouldn't an Italian eat pasta with meatballs?

You are right, Fascist-land is indeed Italy, it was in between the wars, and in the last few years serious damage has been inflicted to its democratic structure, thankfully this trend will end soon. Sorry about the OT. While France had what can technically be described as a dictatorship after the war, it was in no way comparable to Italy, in fact it can be considered a benevolent interim government that ensured France could emerge from the war fiasco as a fully democratic highly socialized republic.
Italian emigrants to the USA developed this tradition, it is not known most of Italy.
That's right: The land of French fascists...
Remember Napoleon?
Exactly! Tommasi is a fraud. He's an expert only in bullshit....
Thank you, Anders. You represent an oasis of rationality and sense in this group of frauds.
Bullshit.
It's southern Italian. My grandparents, who all came from eastern central and southen Italy, brought this with them. They all made wedding soup, which contains tiny meatballs.
You show your complete ignorance more and more, Mr Tommasi.
What about the wine?
What about complex wines with simple dishes, and simple wines with complex dishes?
What do you have to say about that?

VERY rare. Try to get your hands on any of the real classic italian cookbooks. Not italian american, but italian italian. One of the best - which has been the best selling cookbook in Italy for 50 years or thereabouts, is called "The Silver spoon". Out of some 38 pages covering every conceivable kind of pasta with sauces, there's just one with meatballs. And no, it's NOT spaghetti, or tagliatelli, or even fettucini, it's rigatoni. Meatballs themselves feature in 10 other recipes, - lamb with aubergine, in brandy, lemon, with anchovies, potato, spinach, garnished with onion, in soup and pork tenarelli. In no case is pasta suggested as an accompaniment either. Spaghetti with pasta's perfectly good, but it's no more typically italian than a Pizza. I reckon that Mike Scarpitti, for all his name is about as italian as Pizza Hut.
LOL! Nice left jab, Ian. ;^D
Tom S
True. In fact spaghetti with pasta is even rarer than spaghetti with meatballs.

Oh yes, this happens when the only source of italian culture is "Lady and the tramp"

ROFLMAO! This thread is degenerating into something pretty funny - if OT. :^D
Tom S
Look, jerk, do you have anything intelligent to contribute about Carignano?
If not, shut the f*ck up.....

I would like to pretend that was deliberate. How about spaghetti and chips? That's a truly British perversion.
