Isole e Olena Chianti Classico ‘18
ooooft, Chianti! for those of you who are unfamiliar - this Tuscan beauty is a Sangiovese-based style that was traditionally found in apple-bottomed, straw weaved bottles. Sangiovese, being typically bone dry, is dosed with other varietals like; Canaiolo, Colorino, Cab Sauv or Merlot creating yummy Chianti as we know it.
more importantly, this is one of our shop dads, Robbie’s, favourite wines – so we’ll paraphrase him. .delightful, elegant and aromatic with sour cherries, dried herbs. on the palate she’s fresh, full of energy and crying out for a rib-eye steak.
decant this beauty for about 30 minutes before serving, performs best with food.
sip now or stash away for 5 years.
