About this wine

Rustic Italian Charm in a Classic Flask

Botter Chianti in its traditional wicker fiasco flask offers both visual nostalgia and authentic Tuscan flavour. Bright red cherry, dried herbs and a hint of spice lead the way on a medium-bodied palate, with lively acidity and soft tannins adding structure and freshness. Ideal with tomato-based pasta, pizza or grilled meats.

Crafted in the heart of Tuscany, this DOCG Chianti blends Sangiovese with native varieties to reflect the region's classic style. The straw-covered flask makes it perfect for gifting or centrepiece dining with an old-world touch.

About the producer

Casa Vinicola Botter was founded in 1928 when Carlo Botter and his wife Maria began selling wine in the village of Fossalta di Piave, near Venice. Now in its third generation under Luca, Annalisa, and Alessandro Botter, the family company has grown into one of Italy's largest wine exporters, with a capacity of 23.5 million litres and a range spanning every major Italian appellation. Their own labels — including Cortestrada — capture each region's character with reliability and craft.
