2023 Castellare - Chianti Classico (750ml)

Experience the 2023 Castellare Chianti Classico (750ml), a quintessential Tuscan red that pairs beautifully with everyday Italian-inspired meals and special occasions alike.

Tasting notes: This youthfully expressive Chianti Classico typically presents a bright core of red fruit, such as cherry and red plum, with earthy undertones and a lift of mineral character. Crisp acidity and supple tannins create a balanced, persistent finish that invites another glass with cuisine.

Why it stands out: While maintaining classic Chianti Classico elegance, this vintage offers approachable fruit and structure, making it a versatile companion for a range of dishes.

Food pairing: Perfect with tomato-based pastas, ragù, mushroom risotto, grilled vegetables, poultry roasted with herbs, and aged pecorino cheese. It also shines with antipasti featuring olives, roasted peppers, and marinated mushrooms.

Serving and storage: Serve slightly below room temperature (about 60–64°F / 15–18°C). Decant for 15–30 minutes if enjoyed now to help integrate tannins. Store in a cool, dark place away from direct light.
