It all depends on whether you want to wine to complement the food or contrast with it. Most people go the former route while others including Foodie go the other route.

Meatball sandwiches are almost always made with tomato sauce. The sauce dominates the sandwich and is very acidic. Barbera and Sangiovese based wines are also very acidic.

The wines Foodie recommends are low in acid and will contrast with the sandwiches.

Take your pick.
