We’ve recently been dipping into the imported wine section at Woolies. We love its Italian Red for everyday drinking, and this chianti is on the list for long lunches with friends …
Why we love it:
Santa Cristina Chianti Superiore is a smooth talker with roots – literally – in nearly a century of Tuscan winemaking. This Italian red brings morello cherries, a touch of wild herb and just enough balsamic lift to keep things interesting. The palate is plush and velvety, with a savoury finish that lingers like a good dinner guest – it’s unmistakenly from the hills of Chianti!
