Borgaio Chianti Classico Riserva
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01A deep ruby hue, hinting at its maturity, greets the eye, while the nose offers a compelling bouquet of dark cherry, dried plum, and a subtle whisper of leather and earthy truffle. This Chianti Classico Riserva displays an elegant complexity, with notes of toasted almond and a touch of bay leaf weaving through the fruit.
-
Palate & Finish
02On the palate, it reveals a firm, yet supple tannic structure, leading to a vibrant acidity that balances the rich fruit flavors of blackberry and a lingering spice. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a refined impression of licorice and a dry, mineral undertone.

At the Table
03This wine is an exceptional companion for slow-cooked lamb ragu, wild boar cacciatore, aged Pecorino cheese, or a classic Florentine steak. It also shines alongside mushroom risotto or a hearty beef stew.
