Chianti in straw baskets is arguably the most easily recognized product in the world of wines. It is a light, fresh, dry red made in a special manner. The traditional practice to produce Chianti, called the Governo, consists of a slow refermentation of the wine. Opici Chianti is a vintage-dated D.O.C.G. dry red which can be enjoyed young, even chilled.
Opici Chianti has a bright, light ruby color and a touch of violets in the nose. The taste is fresh, crisp, and dry with a clean finish.
Enjoy this wine with casual cuisine, including chicken, burgers, pizza, and pasta with tomato based sauces.--Winemakers Note
