Think of autumn leaves falling and a little homemade porchetta roll–don’t forget the dried oregano and that last hot-as-your-oven-will-go 30 minutes to get the crackle, oh and there’s 1,000 great salsa verde recipes online.

Villa Migliarina Montozzi Chianti Superiore 2022

Deliciously ripe and fleshy cherry notes, wrapped delicately in tobacco leaf and a lovely bitter cherry edge in this Chianti that’s sitting more in the plush and weightier.

Tenuta Casabianca Chianti Collo Senesi 2021

A crowd-pleasing bambino that’s got cool dad vibes to match your perfectly worn jeans. Made by a legend, Vittorio Fiore, who’s extracted rich dark cherries and leathery tannins in this mostly, Sangiovese blend. Dinner-worthy, but with lazy, afternoon ease – perfect.

Fiore Nero Chianti 2021

A classic feel and shape – think Mulberries, red cherry jam building through leather, dried herbs and gentle savoury tannins.
