Decent wine, but not exceptional. We've had better vintages in Vancouver, and it was a pleasing sensation to revisit a familiar wine in Sydney.

Rich and interesting nose, with a dominant black cherry and red currant note, tempered by a mild musty undertone, and elevated by the feel of cinnamon toast, rusty undertones, and a rich, savory profile featuring blue cheese, sharp cheddar, tar, corn, and peanut butter.

What the web is saying

Straccali Chianti is praised for its affordability and versatility, with many noting its rich, fruity flavors of cherry, strawberry, and plum, complemented by subtle oak and earthy undertones. While some appreciate its smooth texture and balanced tannins, others find it lacks complexity and depth. It's a reliable choice for casual dining and pairs well with Italian cuisine, though it may not satisfy those seeking a more refined experience.

Voss Experts4.3

This Straccali Chianti is a lively and vibrant red with aromas of ripe red cherries, dark plums, dried herbs, and subtle notes of spices. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and smooth, with bright acidity and a long finish of ripe fruit and earthy flavors. Enjoy its juicy red fruit flavors and great structure with pasta dishes, grilled meats, and aged cheeses.
