Chianti Classico Badia a San Michele
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01This Chianti Classico presents a luminous, ruby-red hue, deepening to garnet at the rim, with no effervescence. Its complex bouquet unfurls with notes of wild cherry, dried violet, and a subtle whisper of earthy truffle, characteristic of a well-aged Sangiovese.
-
Palate & Finish
02On the palate, it offers a dry, savory experience with firm, well-integrated tannins and a bright acidity that dances on the tongue. The finish is remarkably long and persistent, echoing the initial fruit and mineral nuances with a lingering touch of balsamic.

At the Table
03This wine is an ideal companion to Florentine steak, wild boar ragu, aged Pecorino cheese, or a simple yet elegant mushroom risotto. It also shines when served alongside roasted lamb with rosemary.
