About the FNCC

Some wines need no introduction. We are not Some Wines. We are Andrew and Simon and this is the classic boy meets wine story. Forged from the smoldering fires erupting from the boredom of middle aged Friday nights, and an infantile ignorance of a simple wine known only as "Chianti".

To adhere to the scientific method,
all Chianti's will be decanted, served at room temp and ingested orally, while reviewing the scientific method, for scientific methodology.
