Campo Antico Chianti
Two Tuscan Chiantis on our shelf in Commack, ready to go.
The story behind Campo Antico
Chianti is Sangiovese from Tuscany, and Chianti Classico is the heart of that zone between Florence and Siena. The wine runs bright and savory, with sour cherry, dried herb and firm tannin, and it is built for food rather than sipping alone. Riserva means extra aging before release, so the fruit settles and the structure softens.
We keep Campo Antico in the Chianti section here in Commack, one or two bottles at a time. Ask at the counter and we will point you to it.

Which Campo Antico is right for you?
The Campo Antico Chianti Classico is $14.99 and the Chianti Classico Riserva is $16.99, both for the 750mL bottle. Two dollars separates them, so take one of each and taste the difference aging makes. We stock just a bottle or two of each, so call ahead if you want a specific one held.
Bright acidity cuts tomato sauce and keeps the table easy.
More weight and softer tannin for braised meat and aged cheese.

Chianti wants food with fat and acid, so keep it at the table.
