Tasting Notes

This prestigious Chianti Classico DOCG represents the pinnacle of Italian winemaking excellence. Its 14.5% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Sangiovese 100%, 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 500 meters above sea level, the hills of Frescobaldi’s Tenuta Perano. Vinification: fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine is aged 36 months in wood, of which 24 in barrique. A wine true to the storied winemaking heritage of Tuscany.
