Our Italian Fall Favorites and Wines That Make Them Shine!


Ah, fall at Zeppoli’s – a time of crisp air, changing leaves, and hearty, comforting dishes that warm your soul. Italian cuisine in the fall is a celebration of seasonal ingredients and rich flavors that come together to create unforgettable meals. From hearty soups to comforting classics, our Italian fall favorites offer a journey through seasonal flavors. Discover the perfect wine pairings that elevate these dishes to new heights, as we explore our Pumpkin and Chorizo Soup and Beef Stroganoff!

A Flavorful Autumn Delight


Get ready to cozy up with a bowl of our pumpkin and chorizo soup! We have blended pureed pumpkin with a smoky, spicy kick of chorizo, butter beans, and sweet corn. When it comes to pairing wine with these bold flavors, opt for a medium to full-bodied red wine like a Grenache or a Tempranillo. These wines can stand up to the robustness of the dish without overpowering it, creating a harmony of flavors.

A Comforting Fall Dish


Our beef stroganoff is a classic comfort food that never fails to satisfy! We combine tender strips of seared steak, mushrooms, and onions in our creamy garlic sauce tossed with our homemade angel hair pasta. Its rich and hearty flavors make it a crowd-pleaser for any occasion. To complement the richness of our beef stroganoff, reach for a medium to full-bodied red wine such as a Merlot or a Cabernet Sauvignon. These wines have enough structure and depth to enhance the savory flavors of the dish without stealing the show.
