Fattoria Selvapiana Chianti Rufina DOCG 2018 Review
This wine is under $20 and worth a case-buy for pasta night. It smells like ripe cherries and a tobacco shop, with a hint of licorice. The acidity is high, but there is a nice depth, making it an excellent weeknight wine that won’t weigh you down. If you're looking to do classic Italian tonight, pulling the cork on this can complete the meal.
