A true classic - 90p

We’re paying tribute to a true classic from Chianti today. This is a personal favorite from this legendary region in the heart of Italy.
Casanuova di Nittardi Chianti Classico is a pure Sangiovese from the single vineyard “Vigna Doghessa” in the municipality of Castellina in Chianti. It delivers premium quality year after year, and has a somewhat cult status in many countries. 
Since 1981, Nittardi has paid annual homage to Michelangelo by having an internationally recognized artists create the label and wrapping paper. 
This is an elegant wine that will pair exceptionally well with many autumn dishes, and has cellaring potential for a decade. 

Tasting Notes

​Casanuova di Nittardi Chianti Classico Vigna Doghessa 2021 - 345kr


Ruby red colour.
Lovely aromas of ripe cherries, plums, leather, roasted spices and nuts.
Delicate and meaty in the mouth. Cherries and ripe plums, with spices and wood in the finish. Nice tannins, great acidity and good length. 
A great wine in many ways. 

With Food
Great with lamb dishes, game and rich pork dishes
