A lovely Chianti Classico from a small organic wine producer with only 3,5 hectares just outside the village of Greve in Chianti in Tuscany. Azienda Agricola Montecalvi Chianti Classico is made from 90% sangiovese and 10% canaiolo.

Canaiolo is a local variety from Tuscany. It is a grape that gives spiciness and a peppery note to the wine. The taste is full and warm with a fresh acidity in the background. It has pleasant notes of wild herbs like rosemary, juniper and cherry. A wine to enjoy with a pasta or grilled meat. www.montecalvi.com, price: 15 euro.
