DRINK OF THE WEEK
17th September 2018
Contralto Chianti
Sainsbury's £5.75
Drinker Rating 90
So the weather and the light seem distinctly autumnal now and we switch form fresh and zesty to warming and savoury wines.
I've really taken to Chianti in recent years, I think the general standard has improved no end and the prices are extremely competitive.
This is an absolute bargain from Sainsbury's, it's fruit driven, bags of blackberry and ripe black cherry a hint of warming pepper spice and some nice toasty oak. Mists and mellow fruitfulness in a glass.
Cheers!
