title: Castello del Terriccio 2000 Rondinaia Sangiovese (Toscana)
description: Rondinaia means “swallow's refuge,” but you're going to want to swallow lots of this unoaked wine as proof that great Chard does come from Italy, and that it can be terrific without wood. Emphasizing fragrant apple and pear aromas, it has a wonderful natural texture and a smooth, stony finish.
variety: Sangiovese
designation: Rondinaia
