The Tasting

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    A profound ruby red with hints of garnet, this Chianti Classico Riserva offers an intoxicating bouquet of ripe cherry, wild blackberry, and a whisper of dried herbs, underpinned by subtle notes of leather and tobacco. The nose is complex and inviting, showcasing the Sangiovese's characteristic floral and earthy nuances.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, this wine reveals a beautifully structured core of dark fruit, balanced by bright acidity and firm, elegant tannins that contribute to a lingering, sophisticated finish. The mouthfeel is both powerful and refined, with a persistent echo of red fruit and a touch of minerality. This Riserva is an ideal companion to classic Tuscan fare such as Bistecca alla Fiorentina, slow-braised wild boar ragu, or a hearty lentil soup. It also shines alongside aged Pecorino cheese or a rich lasagna.
