This wine is 100% Sangiovese with maturation taking
place in French oak for 12 months follow by 6 months in the bottle before being
released with the alcohol at 14%.
Great vibrant nose on this Chianti, with aromas of
red berry fruit, leather, floral notes and savoury spices. On the mouthfeel,
medium bodied, dry with sweet and sour edge flavours of berries, cherry and
plum, lively acidity and fine dusty tannins. This wines finish is long, fresh
and lively with excellent depth of flavours. Absolutely love this well made,
traditional style of Chianti Classico and at this price it is a great value.
Not to be missed for any lovers of Sangiovese based wines, score 90 points.
