October at Villa Dianella is the month of the harvest, when vineyards turn warm shades and dishes tell the story of the countryside through bold, enveloping flavors.
For the recipe of the month<\/strong>, chef Alessio Bagnoli<\/strong> presents a dish that brings together tradition, creativity, and territory: Tonnarelli with Dianella Chianti and game rag\u00f9<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A first course that surprises at first glance: the fresh pasta, dark and violet-toned, carries in both color and aroma the full character of our Chianti. Completing it is a white game rag\u00f9, slow-cooked without tomato, leaving space for the meat and the aromas of herbs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

The idea behind the dish<\/h2>\n

The distinctive element of this recipe lies in moving the wine from the sauce to the dough.
Traditionally, in wild boar or game rag\u00f9, red wine is used to deglaze the meat. In this case, instead, Dianella Chianti is reduced and used to knead the tonnarelli<\/strong>, giving the pasta an intense color and a distinctive aroma.
The sauce remains \u201cwhite,\u201d cooked without tomato, with game meat (wild boar or mixed game) flavored only with vegetables, aromatic herbs, and good olive oil.<\/p>\n

The result is a dish that captures Tuscany: robust yet refined, able to combine rustic character and finesse.<\/p>\n
