Villa Sant'Anna, Chianti Colli Senesi

Here's one of the most consistent pound-for-pound values in classic Tuscan Sangiovese. Villa Sant'Anna is a small property in Montepulciano run by Simona Ruggeri and her two daughters, Anna and Margherita. This Chianti Colli Senesi is a bright, woodsy, easier-drinking sibling to the estate's benchmark Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Containing 90% Sangiovese and aged about eight months in large casks, this wine is a perennial over-achiever, with dark black cherry fruit and underbrush notes supported by brisk acidity. Pair this with a grilled steak on a Tuesday night and you'd be hard-pressed to think of a better wine experience.

Italy

Northwestern Italy

Piedmont

Italy’s Piedmont region is really a wine “nation”unto itself, producing world-class renditions of every type of wine imaginable: red, white, sparkling, sweet...you name it! However, many wine lovers fixate on the region’s most famous appellations—Barolo and Barbaresco—and the inimitable native red that powers these wines:Nebbiolo.

Tuscany

Chianti

The area known as “Chianti” covers a major chunk of Central Tuscany, from Pisa to Florence to Siena to Arezzo—and beyond. Any wine with “Chianti” in its name is going to contain somewhere between 70% to 100% Sangiovese, and there are eight geographically specific sub-regions under the broader Chianti umbrella.
