Le Chiantigiane "Oro dei Sani" Rosso di Toscana IGT Governo 2021
This fine restaurant-quality imported wine is not available at LCBO stores.
"Governo" is a traditional Tuscan oenological technique that aids fermentation and gives the wine a bit more sweetness and a slightly higher alcohol content. This Governo has been one of our most popular wines of 2020-2021.
A customer of ours who bought this wine wrote this tip: "Needs a good 45 minutes in the decanter to open up, and then its really a wonderful expression of central Tuscan wine making." —Rick H. on Vivino
