Vallepicciola sits in Castelnuovo Berardenga, at the southern edge of the Chianti Classico zone, and their Toscana Rosso IGT is a Sangiovese-led Tuscan red with modern polish. Deep-fruited, food-hungry, and unmistakably central-Italian.

Mood: Tuscan, savory, weeknight-luxe.

Sommelier
The everyday Tuscan red the Chianti Classico regulars quietly reach for. Not the reserve, but the one that pairs with anything and lets the food shine.

Tasting Notes

Ripe cherry, plum, and warm dried herb on the nose with a whisper of leather and violet. The palate is medium-full and savory, with sour-cherry acidity, plum fruit, and Tuscan tobacco-and-cedar spice framed by firm ripe tannins. The finish is warm and dry, herbal and clean.

Food Pairing

A workhorse Italian Shabbos red. Ideal with pasta al ragu, roast chicken, veal osso buco, or a mushroom-forward risotto. Also beautiful with hard aged pecorino or grana-style cheeses (kosher versions).
