Tasting Notes

This Chianti Classico DOCG stands as a benchmark for Tuscany's highest quality classification. Its 13.5% alcohol content supports a rounded, well-integrated style. Crafted from Sangiovese 90%, Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo e Colorino 10%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. Expect layered dark fruit aromas, firm tannins and a long, satisfying finish. The fruit is sourced from vineyards at an altitude of 350 m. above sea level, with exposure to the South, South-East and South-West, on soils of medium texture stony. Vinification: fermentation with indigenous yeasts, maceration for 3 weeks. The wine is aged 12 months in oak barrels Austrian and French. A wine capturing the sun-drenched hills of Tuscany in every glass.
