Coli Chianti 2007

I bought this to have with my brother and my dad as we fired up the BBQ while for Bathurst – the car race in NSW that has bogan written all over it.

The three of us have somehow developed a bit of a pattern of stumbling upon good, cheap Chianti over the last decade. So naturally, when I saw this classic looking package on the shelf at Cardamones Italian supermarket in Fairfield, I couldn’t resist. The fact that it’s a very drinkable light red in the classic Chianti style was a bonus. This is exactly the type of wine you need as the weather starts turning sunny. Think BBQs, picnics in the park and hot evenings in the back yard with our good friend daylight savings.

This little cane enclosed bottle will give you the perfect companion for all these times … well, almost perfect.
