Santa Cristina Chianti Superiore DOCG 2022 (1x75cl)

A Sangiovese-based red from Chianti Superiore DOCG in Tuscany, 2022 vintage. This is the kind of Italian red that's built for food rather than for staring at, which makes it a useful bottle to keep two or three of at home.

Pizza, pasta with tomato sauce, sausages, a cheese plate, even leftovers. Open it, pour it, no decanting needed.

Tasting notes

Sangiovese typically shows sour cherry, dried herbs and a savoury tomato-leaf note, with bright acidity and grippy tannins that suit food. Usually good slightly cool.
