The Story

This wine was born from a selection of the grapes intended for the production of Brolio Chianti Classico. A traditional Reserve of distinctive Chianti character. Sangiovese 80%, Merlot 15%, Cabernet Sauvignon 5%.

Chianti Classico is especially perfect as a compliment to meat-based main courses, such as porchetta allo spiedo, tripe, bistecca alla fiorentina, Colonnata lard, cold cuts and finocchiona di cinta senese. Chianti Classico also goes well with semi-mature Pecorino Toscano cheese, crostini alla toscana and fagioli al fiasco. The wine should be served at a temperature of 60-65°F.

Written Notes

Fairly deep ruby ​​red color. A gentle cherry scent with notes of tomato leaves and sandalwood. The lively medium-bodied mouthfeel is backed by vivid acidity and ripe cranberry and cherry flavours. Good texture that is complemented with supple tannins. Well-balanced wine with good savoury finish. Ideally for antipasti and wild boar or rabbit ragus. At its best in 2022-2025. Decant now for 2 hours and serve at 17-18C. JL 87p (3/2020)
