Chianti.....

I believe Chianti Classico is the "Classic" wine pairing for this dish and it makes sense. It’s the same reason it goes so well with pizza. Its medium body doesn't dominate, the decent acidity cuts through the saltiness of the prosciutto and richness of the cheese and sauce. It even has the ability, to stand up to the lemon which isn't always an easy thing to do.
