Palate & Finish
02On the palate, this Chianti Classico offers a well-defined structure, with bright acidity and fine-grained tannins that create a pleasingly dry, lingering finish. The flavors mirror the nose, showcasing a persistent red fruit character that evolves into a sophisticated mineral complexity. This wine is an ideal companion for classic Tuscan fare such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, Pappardelle al Cinghiale, or a hearty lentil soup. It also shines alongside aged Pecorino cheese or a simple grilled lamb chop.
