Enjoy our new classic pasta sauces

Made just for us in Tuscany

Chef Pasquale Sorrentino presides over our Rochester, NY Amore restaurant and, as a native of Naples, he knows a lot about authentic Italian taste. He teamed up with Wegmans Executive Chef John Steinhoff to create a new line of traditional, truly Italian sauces. We took the homestyle recipes they developed to our supplier in Italy, and now, they’re using the finest regional ingredients to create classic sauces with the kind of flavor that only comes from fresh vegetables, cheese, herbs, and seasonings, simmered for hours.

Try Them All

Artisan-style small-batch pasta sauces created just for us.

Generously filled with authentic Italian ingredients

We asked Antonio Marchetti, our Italian Classics pasta supplier, to work with our chefs to develop a line of unique filled pastas. His company, Bertagni, was founded in Bolgna in 1882 and is Italy’s oldest filled pasta manufacturer. The artisan pastas they craft for us have generous fillings of authentic Italian ingredients wrapped in a very delicate pasta. “Pasta should be like a bridal veil; soft, silky, and light,” says Antonio.
