Straccali hits that value wine sweet spot with this easy expression of Chianti. The wine is bright and simple but the clean berry nuances are enough to pair with pizza or stay-home leftovers.

Vibrant ruby red in the glass. Bright, youthful aromas of ripe red fruit lead to a nice, velvety mouthfeel and good structure. Just enough mouth-watering acidity to make it a perfect wine for your next meal.

Clean and bright with light scents of violets, this has more plush cherry fruit than you'd expect at the price. It has guts to it, not to mention charm.

A light-bodied, fun red - bright, crisp and lively. Hints of red cherry, cranberry and currant flavors are supported by a vibrant acidic structure, making this wine the perfect foil for red sauces. An excellent weekday wine that's easy on the wallet.

Fresh, pulpy cherry flavors meld with earthier, rustic notes in this traditional Tuscan red, a pick for a casual cold-evening's supper of steaming ribollita.
