WineDiva's Review

Engaging, chocolaty, fresh.
This widely recognized ochre labeled Chianti Classico offers evolving and engaging aromatics of dried rose petals, star anise, strawberries and chocolate, sweet spices, vanilla, licorice and espresso. The palate mimics the nose with warm chocolaty flavours layered with tobacco, leather and red fruits. It has dry, powdery tannins and a long fresh finish. Pair: slow roasted meats, tomato based pastas, Italian cheese and salami platters.

Who is Wine Diva?
WineDiva is my alter ego. She wears a cork tiara and is proof that a girl can have her w(h)ine and drink it too! WineDiva.ca is a tongue-in-cheek approach to my very serious passion for all things wine. It is my goal to make wine fun, to make this website subtly educational & deviously inspirational. Vintage reciting wine snobs beware, this WineDiva is painting the wine world pink and making it her own! Care to join me?
