Isole e Olena Chianti Classico is a red wine produced by the Isole e Olena estate, located in the heart of the Chianti Classico region of Tuscany, Italy. 

Isole e Olena are one of the legends of Tuscany, and their Chianti Classico is often heralded as a benchmark for the region. The wine is fruity and soft, with plenty of backbone as well, a must-try if you love Tuscan wines. It is made primarily from the Sangiovese grape, which is known for producing elegant and complex wines with high acidity and firm tannins.

In the glass, Isole e Olena Chianti Classico has a deep ruby colour with purple hues. The nose is intense and complex, with aromas of dark fruit such as blackberry, black cherry, and plum, as well as notes of leather, tobacco, and spice. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a firm structure, high acidity, and fine-grained tannins. Flavours of ripe fruit dominate, with hints of vanilla and oak adding complexity. 

Food pairing suggestion: Isole e Olena Chianti Classico is a great Italian red wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes. For example:

  1. Pasta dishes: The acidity and tannins pair well with tomato-based sauces and hearty meat sauces.
  2. Roasted meats: its medium body and savoury flavours make it a great match for roasted meats like beef, lamb, and pork.
  3. Hard cheeses: wine’s acidity and tannins are complemented extremely well by the saltiness of hard cheeses like Parmesan, Pecorino, and aged Cheddar.
  4. Pizza: this Chianti’s bright acidity and cherry flavours make it a great match for pizza, especially with toppings like sausage, mushrooms, and olives.
  5. Grilled vegetables: wine’s savoury notes pair well with grilled vegetables like eggplant, zucchini, and bell peppers.
