2016 Frescobaldi Castiglioni Chianti

We've been trying to prune non-stop in April, working around all the rainy days that we have been having. One evening, after an especially grueling day, we ordered up our favorite pizza and drank this 2016 Frescobaldi Castiglioni Chianti.
Chianti is a good pairing with anything with red sauce. This Chianti is an easy drinking, approachable wine with nice red berry fruit flavors and good structure with nicely balanced acidity and tannins.
I've purposefully left the price tag on---$14.99! This is a very quaffable Chianti and the price makes it a great pairing with a humble, but oh so yummy food like pizza.
