The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico presents a luminous ruby red hue, hinting at sun-drenched Sangiovese vineyards, and offers an immediate bouquet of ripe cherry, subtle violet, and a whisper of earthy leather. A complex interplay of wild berry and a touch of Mediterranean herbs unfolds with each inhalation, promising a vibrant and engaging experience.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, the wine is beautifully structured, showcasing a firm yet yielding tannin profile that carries notes of black plum and a delightful hint of bitter almond. The finish is long and persistent, echoing the fruit and herbaceous nuances with a clean, mineral-driven elegance that lingers pleasingly. This versatile Chianti Classico is an ideal companion for classic Tuscan dishes like Bistecca alla Fiorentina, Pappardelle al Cinghiale, or a simple yet satisfying selection of aged Pecorino cheese. It also shines alongside roasted lamb with rosemary or a rich Ragu alla Bolognese.
