This historic area includes such famous towns as Greve, Radda, Gaiole and Castellina in Chianti. Wines from these areas benefit from higher altitudes and ideal soils, producing wines that are structured, elegant and worthy of ageing. The Black Rooster seal on the bottle when you buy Chianti guarantees provenance from this fine production area.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"schema-faq-section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"schema-faq-question\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Is Chianti a dry wine?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"schema-faq-answer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes, Chianti is a dry wine. It is made primarily from the Sangiovese grape, which produces wines with bright acidity, moderate tannins and flavours of cherry, plum, herbs and sometimes earthy. Although it has fruity notes, a true Chianti has little or no residual sugar, making it a food friendly dry red wine, ideal for accompanying Italian cuisine such as pasta with tomato sauce or roasted meats.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"schema-faq-section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"schema-faq-question\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Is Chianti wine sweet?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"schema-faq-answer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">No, Chianti is not a sweet wine. It is a dry red wine with fresh acidity and a firm structure. Although some fruit notes, such as cherry or strawberry, may give a sense of sweetness to the nose, the wine itself is fully fermented, leaving little or no residual sugar.
