Salcheto's Biskero Chianti comes from one of Tuscany's leading organic and biodynamic estates, where sustainability isn't just a marketing buzzword but a comprehensive philosophy that extends to every aspect of production. This fresh, approachable Chianti is crafted primarily from Sangiovese with small amounts of traditional blending partners Canaiolo and Mammolo. The name 'Biskero' comes from the local dialect word for 'easy drinking' – and that's exactly what this wine delivers, though with more character and sense of place than the description might suggest. Salcheto is also known for their innovative carbon-neutral approach, including lightweight bottles and other eco-friendly practices that reduce their environmental footprint. It's the perfect everyday Italian red that lets you feel good about what's in your glass in more ways than one – delicious wine, responsible production, and a price that won't make you wince. Sustainability never tasted so good.
