A Little Info About Chianti
Pronunciation: (Kee-Ahn-tee)
Made from Sangiovese grapes, Chianti refers to a region in Tuscany, Italy where the wine is produced. Since Chianti is Sangiovese-based, the high acid and moderately high tannin levels make this wine perfect for rich, meat and tomato laden-foods (like you might find in, say, Italian cuisine).
