Chianti Classico

Full

Cork

Riserva

The estate’s most ‘international’ of their Chianti Classico trio in the sense that it incorporates both Merlot and Syrah, planted on the estate’s lower plots where grey clay prevails. The Sangiovese hails from higher, stonier sites rich in limestone. Attractive scents of espresso, liquorice and fennel lead off. Smooth, almost chocolatey in texture, the palate ensues with Mediterranean herbs and dark red cherry. Oak nuances are dispersed judiciously throughout. and acidity lends a welcome crunch. Mocha suffuses the finish. All quite upfront and facile in its charms.
