In Chianti...

A winetasting at the enoteca "Le Volte" in Castellini in Chianti really made us aware of how the enthusiatic wine-growers in Chianti improved their sangiovese wines during the past years! Try the small producers. Strong recommendations to buy Concadero 2007, Chianti classico riserva, with 95% Sangiovese grapes (13 euro). To get the Casina di Corina 2006,(17.50 euro,) also a riserva with 100% Sangiovese, you have to go directly to the vineyard. These two wines have a good structure, balance, and a great potential!
