The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    A vibrant ruby red, hinting at youthful energy, this Chianti Classico unfurls with an intense bouquet of ripe cherry, earthy notes of forest floor, and a subtle whisper of violet. The Sangiovese's characteristic balsamic undertones intermingle with a touch of dried herbs, creating a captivating aromatic complexity.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, it delivers a firm, well-integrated tannic structure that is both powerful and graceful, leading to a long, lingering finish. Flavors of dark plum and a hint of leather evolve beautifully, showcasing the wine's depth and persistent elegance. This Chianti Classico is a perfect companion 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 simple grilled lamb chops.
