Reviews and Ratings

Lots of vibrant and intense meaty red fruit on this Chianti Classico from the Tuscany wine region. Very warm as well with 14.5% alcohol. Very smooth, very delicious with rich cherry, strawberry flavours and a zesty acidity to match. The Insole e Olean estate is located in the heart of the Chianti region between the historic cities of Florence and Siena in Tuscany. The red wine blend for this Chianti is 80% Sangiovese, 15% Canaiolo and 5% Syrah grapes. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
