Famiglia Zingarelli Chianti Classico
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01This Chianti Classico presents a vibrant ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful energy, and releases an enticing bouquet of ripe cherry, subtle violet, and a whisper of earthy leather. The nose is classic Sangiovese, offering a delicate floral lift interwoven with darker fruit undertones.
-
Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the wine is beautifully balanced with bright acidity and fine-grained tannins that provide a pleasing structure, leading to a persistent finish that echoes the fruit and a touch of savory complexity. The texture is smooth and elegant, allowing the nuanced flavors to unfold gracefully over a good length.
