Osso buco
Osso buco is a classic Milanese dish of braised veal shanks in a rich tomato, vegetable, and wine sauce, traditionally topped with gremolata. The intense flavors, bone marrow richness, and long-simmered sauce call for beverages with enough structure and complexity to complement rather than be overwhelmed by the dish.
