The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico presents a captivating ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful vibrancy, and releases an immediate perfume of wild cherry and a subtle whisper of violet. As it breathes, notes of dried herbs and a touch of earthy leather emerge, characteristic of Sangiovese's noble complexity.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, this wine unfolds with a firm, yet elegant structure, revealing bright acidity that balances the ripe red fruit flavors of plum and raspberry. The finish is impressively persistent, leaving a lingering impression of savory tannins and a whisper of minerality. This Chianti Classico is an exceptional companion for classic Tuscan dishes such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild boar ragu, or a hearty lentil soup. It also shines alongside aged Pecorino cheese or a simple plate of prosciutto and melon.
