TAKE A JOURNEY TO THE FAMED CHIANTI CLASSICO WINE REGION IN TUSCANY WITH OUR SOMMELIER, JASON YAMASAKI —AND DISCOVER THE INSPIRATION FOR THIS VALENTINE’S DAY EXPERIENCE.
Just like you and your Valentine, whoever that might be, Chianti Classico and Spaghetti and Meatballs go oh-so-well together. The flavour profile of each element work together creating a remarkable experience for your senses. The dish itself is filled with mouth-watering layers of flavours: the acidity of the fresh tomato sauce, earthy-ness of the herbs, and the richness of the meatballs. And the Sangiovese, the staple grape of the Chianti Classico region, has this same sense of refreshment and high level of acidity.
BEYOND THE GRAPES
EXPLORE CHIANTI CLASSICO
Let our Group Sommelier take you and your palate on an enchanting journey around Italy's most iconic wine region. Take a sip and discover the flavours and elements that make the wines of Chianti Classico so remarkable.
THE PERFECT PAIR
When it comes to food and wine pairing, particularly for this, Yamasaki wants to create a perfect balance of acidity to allow more flavours to emerge. When the acidity of the dish on the plate matches the acidity of the wine, a perfect harmony is conceived. What you're left with is more purity and more exposure of the fruit in the wine, more tasting of the pure ripe tomato and some of the underlying spices are revealed.
BETTER TOGETHER
In addition, Chianti Classico always showcases a savoury, almost food-like flavour. The flavour profile that intensifies the spices, seasoning and aromatics of the Spaghetti and Meatballs. It’s such a thrill to have them together.
