So, no matter if you are a Chianti expert who is looking for something new to try or a complete wine novice, we make the choice easier by outlining a variety of Chianti wines that range in price from ten dollars to twenty five dollars. All offer an excellent value for the price.

The first on our list of Chianti wine recommendations is the Da Vinci 2004 DOCG Chianti.
