This classic Italian method of cooking spinach epitomizes the simplicity yet deliciousness of how a few quality ingredients can create something extraordinary. This quick and easy side dish compliments fish, poultry, and meat. I enjoy drinking a glass of Valente Emozione No. 1 with these hearty-garlicky greens. The acidity in this Montonico from Abruzzo brings out the freshness in the spinach and garlic.
