Curation Note

The Tasting

A guided note in three moments, by our curators

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico Riserva presents a luminous ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful vigor, and releases an intoxicating perfume of ripe cherry, wild strawberry, and a subtle whisper of dried herbs and earthy forest floor. The nose is intricately layered, revealing notes of subtle oak influence, a touch of sweet tobacco, and a pleasing balsamic undertone characteristic of Sangiovese.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, it unfolds with a vibrant acidity and fine-grained tannins that create a beautifully balanced and persistent mouthfeel, leading to a long, savory finish with echoes of dark fruit and a mineral tang. The texture is both supple and structured, a testament to its careful aging, offering a delightful interplay of fruit intensity and elegant complexity.

  3. At the Table

    03

    This wine is a natural companion to classic Tuscan fare, pairing exquisitely with a slow-braised wild boar ragu, a hearty Florentine steak, or aged Pecorino cheese. It also shines alongside roasted lamb with rosemary and garlic, or a rich mushroom risotto.
