The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico presents a vibrant ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful exuberance with subtle garnet reflections. The nose is an enticing bouquet of wild cherry and red currant, interwoven with delicate notes of violet and a whisper of damp earth.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, it offers a beautifully balanced acidity that cuts through the ripe red fruit, leading to a firm, yet supple tannic structure. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a lingering impression of savory herbs and a touch of minerality. This wine is an exceptional accompaniment to traditional Tuscan dishes such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild boar ragu, or a hearty lentil soup. It also shines alongside aged Pecorino cheese or a simple pasta al pomodoro.
