Chianti DOCG Borgo Antico

Category: Tag:

Borgo Antico Chianti is made from grapes grown on the hills around Florence and Siena in the heart of Tuscany. It is typically tangy, fresh and enjoyable. It is ruby red in color with ripe fruity aromas and a fresh and round finish. It is ideal with cold cut meats, cheese, pasta and roasted white meats.

Chianti is the classic red wine for Italian food and Italian restaurants. It pairs well with most popular Italian dishes – even fish! The Borgo Antico (“Old Village”) is a fine example of Chianti from one of the top producers in Tuscany.
