The Tasting

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the wine offers a bright acidity that balances the ripe red fruit flavors, leading into a refined, medium-bodied texture. The finish is persistent and savory, leaving a pleasant, lingering hint of almond. This Chianti Classico is an excellent companion to traditional Tuscan dishes such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild boar ragu, or a simple yet elegant pasta with tomato and basil. It also shines alongside aged Pecorino cheese.
