The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico presents a vibrant ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful energy and the sun-drenched vineyards of Tuscany. A captivating bouquet unfolds with notes of ripe black cherry and subtle hints of violet, intertwined with an earthy undertone characteristic of Sangiovese.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, a well-integrated acidity provides a refreshing backbone, leading to flavors of wild strawberry and a touch of Tuscan garrigue. The tannins are present yet refined, offering a pleasing grip that gracefully transitions into a lingering, mineral-infused finish. This wine is a splendid accompaniment to traditional Tuscan fare, such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild boar ragu, or a hearty lentil soup. It also excels alongside aged Pecorino cheese or a simple yet flavorful pasta al pomodoro.
