The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico presents a captivating ruby-red hue, hinting at its youthful vibrancy, and reveals an inviting bouquet of ripe cherry, subtle notes of violet, and a whisper of earthy undertones. The nose is distinctly Sangiovese, offering a fragrant complexity that speaks of sun-drenched Tuscan hills.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, it delivers a well-balanced expression of bright acidity and firm, yet refined, tannins, leading to a persistent finish that echoes the fruity and floral nuances from the nose. The wine's structure is elegant, showcasing a pleasing minerality that lingers gracefully. This wine is an exceptional companion to classic Tuscan fare such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild boar ragu, or a hearty lentil soup. It would also beautifully complement aged Pecorino cheese or a simple plate of prosciutto and bruschetta.
