Need a wine pairing with Vodka Pasta Sauce

I'm cooking Emeril's vodka pasta sauce for my girl friend tonight. We usually drink red cabernets when we eat in, but I wanted to find a wine that paired with this meal. No idea where to start.
Please advise. Thanks!

Drink what you like.

I would go with a Syrah or Sangiovese.

If you want to stick to the Italian theme without breaking the bank you could do a Barbera d'Alba or a Vino Nobile do Montepulciano. If you want to spend more you could get a Brunello or Barbaresco or Barolo. Those three are great Italian wines and along with Amarone the top reds made in Italy. You should be able to get a good bottle of those for around $50. Barbera d'Alba will set you back about $20-$25 a bottle and Vino Nobile is in the same range.

Zinfandel or a Sangiovese. It is actually fairly difficult to pair wines with I-talian food. Most people instantly think of wine with Pasta, but its not always an easy match.

Needle in a haystack but...Charbono if you can find one.

Went down to the local wine store and the guy working said the Langhe Nebbiolo 2014 was a great pairing. I also picked up a bottle of Gabbiano Chianti 2015.
Using fresh roma tomatoes, fresh basil, and cheap gut rot vondka for the vodka sauce. Most recipes say to use penne pasta, however, I prefer using bowtie with this disk. The one time I used penne, the sauce didn't hold as well on the penne as does the bowtie.

That's a good dinner wine. I prefer the Barbera I suggested but the Nebbiolo will work just fine. Enjoy.

Amarone wines usually pair very well with Italian food.
Here is a good one:

With vodka sauce, I usually do Pinot noir or chianti
