بازيليكا كافاجيو كيانتي كلاسيكو فينديميا

This Sangiovese has a lovely earthy depth that pairs perfectly with a simple pasta dish. The 750 ml bottle was enough to share over dinner, and I was impressed by how smooth it tasted even on the first sip.

Opened this with some aged pecorino and the cherry-tinged Sangiovese notes really opened up beautifully. It’s got that classic Tuscan structure but finishes surprisingly smooth. Definitely a solid value for a weekday Chianti.

The bottle’s weight felt substantial, and the color was a deep garnet. It had a nice earthy finish that lingered just long enough. Probably the most balanced Chianti I’ve had in months.
