2020 Casamarta Chianti Classico D.O.C.G.

Get a taste of the classic, food-friendly red blend made for centuries in Italy with 2020 Casamarta Chianti Classico D.O.C.G. This dry, full-bodied Chianti Classico is comprised of Sangiovese (90%) with just a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) for softness. Vivacious ruby red in color, this wine opens with a fruity bouquet expressing cherries, wild red berries, and violets. It is a savory delight with layers of flavor and high acidity. This wine is produced from specially selected, hand-harvested grapes grown in the vineyards of Chianti Classico, an appellation at the heart of Chianti winemaking. Located in Tuscany in Central Italy, Chianti was first documented as a wine production area in the 18th century and is celebrated for its savory Sangiovese. Chianti Classico gets along famously with classic Italian food, so you’ll want to uncork this with pizza and pasta. Its acidity and tannins make it stand up to rich, grilled meats and dishes that use olive oil or tomato sauce. Castellani Family Winery
