Chianti Classico

Surrounded by forest, the Istine vineyard is located between the towns of Radda and Castellina. The northwest facing site sits between 480 to 550 metres and is very rocky with a mixture of alberese, galestro and quartz. It offers a captivating fusion of raspberry, cherry and mint with earthy truffle nuances. The palate is tangy and buoyant introducing hints of orange peel and pomegranate. Fine-framed tannins contain the whole. While beautifully expressive now, this will continue to refine over the next decade or so.
