> Wine of the Month
2003 Tenuta Farneta Bongoverno Toscana IGT
100% Sangiovese — Chianti Colli Senesi in Italy
An Italian word meaning “good government” Bongoverno is the name of our latest Wine of the Month. The clarity of the 100% Sangiovese in its boldest form rendered from a single block of uniquely situated vines next to the villa. Sultry aromas of jammy blackberry and cherry pipe tobacco rise from the glass. Opaque violet color and a huge palate of black fruits and smoky oak. Powerful in youth, elegant and voluptuous with age.

More than a tip of the hat to our address, the name Le Castagne-chestnuts in Italian-honors one of the most important products of Northern Italy. The name also highlights a common thread between Philadelphia and Italy; for once the streets of this city were lined with the solemn trees that lend Chestnut Street its name. The Sena family is pleased to expand and continue its 34-year tradition of dining excellence in Philadelphia.

I recently had the pleasure of having dinner with some old friends at Le Castagne a few weeks ago. The atmosphere was great, perfect for catching up, not to mention it was nice to be waited on by a professional that knew the menu and was able to offer suggestions. I chose a ziti dish and was very pleased… I’m not ashamed to say I took the leftovers home and indulged again the next day. We chose the Coppola Pinot Noir, and the fact that we were able to polish off 3 bottles proves it was the right choice. I highly recommend the homemade gelato, it was refreshing & delicious… 3 weeks later & my mouth is still watering. Over all great experience & I will definitely be back for more. A+++ — Tara Pasca
