Curation Note

The Tasting

A guided note in three moments, by our curators

  1. Appearance & Nose

    01

    This Chianti Classico Riserva presents a vibrant ruby red hue, hinting at its youthful energy, while its aroma unfurls with classic Sangiovese notes of cherry liqueur, dried violets, and a whisper of earthy truffle. A subtle undercurrent of leather and toasted almond adds complexity to this captivating bouquet.

  2. Palate & Finish

    02

    On the palate, it delivers a beautifully structured experience with firm, yet elegant, tannins that embrace the dark fruit flavors of plum and blackcurrant. The finish is long and persistent, revealing a delightful mineral salinity that cleanses the palate.

  3. At the Table

    03

    This wine would be an exceptional companion to classic Florentine steak, slow-braised wild boar ragù, a hearty mushroom risotto, or simply enjoyed with a selection of aged Pecorino cheese.
