This Sangiovese has firm, ripe tannins, a fresh acidity, and a deep, elegant core of red fruits with peppery and salty notes, and it therefore thrives best with dishes that have both richness and a bit of body. The tannins soften when they meet juicy meat and well-braised fare, while the acidity cuts through the fat and keeps the palate fresh. The salty, mineral tones make it lovely with hard, mature cheese and with classic Tuscan meat and pasta dishes, where the intensity of flavor matches the wine's own power. Choose preparations like grilling and braising, which give the meat enough weight to meet the wine's structure.

Vinous
The 2022 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna Casanova dell'Aia is redolent of dried herbs, menthol, sage, tobacco, white pepper, mint and scorched earth. Linear in its contours and yet deep, the Casanova dell'Aia is a super-expressive wine from Radda.
