The Tasting

A guided note in three moments, by our curators

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    A captivating ruby red hue, with just a hint of garnet at the rim, suggests a wine of substance and age. The nose is immediately evocative of sun-drenched Tuscan hills, releasing complex aromas of ripe black cherry, dried plum, and a subtle whisper of leather and dried herbs.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, this Chianti Classico Riserva unfolds with a graceful balance of vibrant acidity and velvety tannins, showcasing notes of wild berry, earthy undercurrents, and a touch of savory tobacco. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a lingering impression of toasted almond and a pleasant, dry minerality.

  3. At the Table

    03

    This exceptional wine would be a perfect companion to a traditional Florentine steak, slow-braised wild boar ragu, aged Pecorino cheese, or a hearty truffle risotto. It also shines alongside roasted game birds or a classic pasta al pomodoro.
