“Great for drinking or cooking.”I was particularly impressed by this wine, for its price it's great with a slight fruity aftertaste which is unusual for a Chianti. It performs very good also to cook meats, I used it with beef stew and red wine sauce for steaks. I can say with no doubts it's my favorite because so versatile and not expensive.
