Chianti is a timeless Italian classic and is Italy’s most famous wine region, making mainly reds from the Sangiovese grape. These days ‘Chianti’ is unlikely to mean a rustic basket wine (fiaschi) and refers to a delicious and classic Italian red - medium-body, bright spicy fruit and Sangiovese’s lovely acidity. Enjoy the cherry fruit and silky texture of these great-value Chianti's with anything off the grill or flavoursome pasta.
This classic collection includes:
2 x Zonin 'Classici' Chianti 2022 2021 2 x Castello di Albola Chianti Classico DOCG 2022 2 x Maretti Chianti DOCG 2022
I enjoyed the wine in so far as it is well rounded - the taste of black fruit evident - not sure about the liquorice though. All in all for the price a pleasant easy drinking wine.
Super ripe very smooth dry red, with just a hint of Cherries in that Italian style and You are able to drink this wine with or without food, Very good value at $20.
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
