Wine and cheese
Cheese with Canaiolo Nero
Pecorino Toscano
Our pick Aged Pecorino Toscano is firm and fragrant, with a sweet rather than salty taste. Chianti's high acidity and cherry fruit cut through the paste, and the cheese's mildness leaves the wine's grip intact.
Chianti Classico and Chianti, Tuscany: Isole e Olena Chianti Classico
Marzolino del Chianti
Our pick Marzolino is fragrant and savoury, getting slightly peppery with age. Chianti Classico's acidity handles the savoury paste, and the sheep's-milk fat softens the tannin.
