This characterful, lively Chianti from the powerful 2018 vintage is a Gold Medal winner which has been rated one of the best value for money wine by the UK Sommelier Association. Chianti is probably one of the most famous and underrated Italian wine because a good Chianti seems to be difficult to find, and too many wine drinkers associate Chianti to the cheap red wine on flask that filled supermarket’s shelves and restaurant tables in the 80’ or the cheap, tasteless, almost watery, Chianti available nowadays from supermarkets. Luckily, good Chianti wines exist and can offer outstanding value for money.Made from organically grown, manually harvested sangiovese grapes cultivated in the province of Arezzo, this wine belongs to the Chianti Colli Aretini DOCG denomination, one of the 7 Chianti DOCG's appellations. Due to the vintage, it has significantly more fullness and spice than its predecessor, and relies on intensity. Made with grapes from old vineyards and then aged in big oak barrels, this Chianti is a great red wine with a complex bouquet with hints of cherry, violet and spices. Full, fruity, smooth, with soft tannins and a long aftertaste. Our Chianti tastes delicious with pasta, pizza and most meat dishes.Please note:
