O.R.A Collective | Chianti DOCG 2023

★★★★★
A hidden gem - not yet rated on Vivino.

Bright, juicy and unmistakably Tuscan, the ORA Chianti DOCG 2023 is Sangiovese at its most vibrant - organic grapes, regenerative farming and effortless drinkability in one dangerously easy bottle. Think crunchy cherry, wild herbs and a subtle whisper of oak, all lifted by lively acidity and a savoury earthy edge that keeps calling you back for another sip. Traditional soul, modern energy.

This is Chianti stripped of the old clichés - no heavy oak, no dusty seriousness, just pure Tuscan charm with freshness and flow. Made by Fattoria San Michele a Torri in the rolling hills outside Florence, the wine reflects a philosophy where healthy soils and biodiversity matter as much as what ends up in the glass. Alive, expressive and incredibly food-friendly, it feels equally at home beside a bowl of pappardelle, grilled meats or a noisy table of friends arguing over who gets the last pour. A classic rebuilt with regenerative thinking and a lighter touch.
