Sangiovese 85% - Others 15%
Red ruby colour, with light garnet hues, perfume persistent end with signs of violet mature fruits and spicy. Structure of consistence and to the taste it distinguishes for a good personal note of freshness that accompanies the notable load of strong and velvety tannins, long persistence wine, it is well balanced, uniting in pleasant way the feeling of heat to the soft elegance of the tannins and the correct acidity. Drink 2018-2029.
A very intense nose of soaked fruit with blackberry compote, licorice, tea leaves, tobacco and ash. Full-bodied, very structured and serious, which is not something you can often say about a normal Chianti Classico. Chewy, but the acidity more than balances everything out. Drink in 2020.
