Description
One could call Chianti Classico the most democratic of Italian wines, for it is just as at home for everyday meals as it is at for the most splendid of banquets. Ours is purely classical in style, relaxed and easy-going; elegant and rounded; medium-bodied, youthful, and fruity: a wonderful expression of the distinctive character of sangiovese.
