What to drink with pasta al vongole!

Hello everybody, simple but slightly difficult question: what would you drink with pasta ai vongole? Any thoughts gratefully received. From Luke the carpenter.

Albarino.

Albariño is a great suggestion. My instincts would take me to Italy for the wine. If you’re making it with tomatoes, maybe a dry, gutsy Bardolino Chiaretto rosé, a light juicy Valpolicella or Frappato from Sicily. If it’s tomato-free, something like Soave, Verdichio dei Castelli de Jesi, Lugana or Pecorino.

I’d also go Italian by default, but my top suggestions would be Fiano or Vermentino, or perhaps Falanghina or Etna Bianco. Tomatoes or not! (Sorry, Tam… :wink: )
