Amazing with grilled steaks or pasta with white ragu and mushrooms. If you enjoy as an aperitivo, it will be better with some semi-aged cheeses and cured meats.

Winemaker Notes
The Story
Chianti Classico, it's a recognizable name and maybe you have even had a good one, but for us it's an overly large region of 100 square miles with an overly large presence of lackluster wine. Finding a good artisan can really be like sifting through a heaping pile of fiascos to find your Coravin needle.
Enter Edoardo Sderci - young, proud organic farmer working with native grapes to make wines which express the traditions of the zone but in a more lively and energetic way - not wines which should be destined for the morgues. His wines perfectly emulate his energetic and bright soul - and as someone once said, wines are often like dogs - they tend to reflect the personality of their owner (and enter the glaring similarities to the Antinori wines and the construction of their mega modern museum). Only 900 cases made of this Casina 2019 (and that's pretty miniscule for Chianti).
