What is Chianti wine?

Chianti is a red wine from Tuscany in central Italy, made mainly from the Sangiovese grape. It is medium-bodied with bright acidity and flavours of red cherry, plum and herbs, making it a great match for pizza, pasta and tomato-based dishes. Try Cecchi Chianti DOCG or Leonardo Da Vinci Chianti.

What is the difference between Chianti and Chianti Classico?

Chianti Classico comes from the historic heart of the Chianti zone between Florence and Siena, marked by the black rooster symbol. It follows stricter rules and is usually more structured and age-worthy than wider Chianti DOCG wines.

What are Barolo and Brunello?

Barolo is a powerful, age-worthy red from Piedmont made from Nebbiolo, while Brunello di Montalcino is a rich Tuscan red made from Sangiovese. Both are among Italy's most prestigious wines.

Is Prosecco an Italian wine?

Yes. Prosecco is Italy's best-known sparkling wine, from the north-east of the country. Browse our full Prosecco collection, including Bottega Pink Gold, or see all sparkling wine.
