“Bandinello,” an ancestor’s namesake, is a hearty Tuscan red that blends young Sangiovese, Ciliegiolo, and Syrah from the heart of the Chianti Classico zone. Where fruit from older vines is reserved for Chianti bottlings that will spend at least two years in the cellar softening around the edges, the juice for this cuvée is bottled with immediate pleasure in mind after six brief months in oak casks. It’s a youthful wine that’s vibrant and vigorous and delivers on their modest promise of simplicity. And while this provincial red aims to favor rusticity over charm, it turns out the two are not mutually exclusive. “Bandinello” is among the most perfect country wines we carry on our shelves.
