Robbie and I enjoyed this in Marios Sandymount. It’s the house wine @ €22. Quite potable, fruity and dry. Good company helps too.
Chianti
Chianti, Tesco, 2012
I’m not sure how this got into the House … an acceptable bring nonetheless.
The label says is all “Simply” Chianti – Sangiovese from Piccini in Central Tuscan; fresh and fruity.
Tesco’s “Simply” philosophy is to present customers with a relatively small selection of wines featuring some of the most popular varietals with simple, easy-to-understand labels and sold at an affordable price.

Dad brought this to Sunday Lunch.
Great weather – we were able to dine al fresco with all the McConkeys at the one table.
Classic Chianti from Tuscany. Silky smooth mouthfeel, complex subtle flavours.
90% Sangiovese, 10% Canaiolo Nero
Great aftertaste, highly recommended for red meat and cheese.
I now regret not decanting it.
