When I think of Chianti in Italy, I typically picture it in one of those legendary “fiasco” squat bottles enclosed in a straw basket. Days of living in Firenze come back to me when I see those!

Those days are almost gone, but not forgotten. Wal-Mart has taken on with the new and their Da Vinci Chianti caught my eye.

The Da Vinci Chianti from Wal-Mart has a unique story behind it claiming to be made in the town that Leonardo da Vinci was from. I’m not sure if that’s just a PR tactic or not, but it worked!

This Chianti DOCG wine was very fruit-forward having nice aromas of ripe cherries and raspberry, with a soft not too tannic finish. For $13.97 , this wine definitely classifies as one of my hidden gems from Wal-Mart and would be a great accompaniment to that pasta marinara dinner of yours

Check out Wine Channel TV in action to see if this Wal-Mart wine will make your next pasta dish even better!

Cheers,
