Villa Cerna Primocolle Chianti Classico is a DOCG-certified Italian red wine from the Chianti Classico sub-region of Tuscany, one of Italy's most prestigious wine appellations. This 750ML bottle is produced by Villa Cerna, an estate with roots in an 11th-century monastery and owned by the Cecchi family, who have been a pillar of Italian viticulture since 1893. The Chianti Classico designation refers not simply to a style but to a distinct 100-square-mile geographic zone recognized for consistently producing some of Tuscany's finest wines.

The wine is composed primarily of Sangiovese (95%) with a small addition of Colorino (5%), a classic Tuscan blend that delivers the variety's signature character. On the nose, expect medium-plus body with aromas of ripe berry fruit and pepper. On the palate the wine offers flavors of cherry and strawberry with earthy undertones, leading to a dry finish with hints of tart acidity and tobacco. It drinks well above its price point and was awarded 95 points by Decanter magazine. Alcohol content is 13.5% ABV.

This wine pairs excellently with classic Italian cuisine, meatballs, pasta with red sauce, grilled red meats, and aged cheeses.
