Its beauty begins from the sight, with a radiant ruby red, which manifests itself with intensity and brightness.
As for the aroma, this wine offers a sensorial journey through the typical scents of Sangiovese, the main grape variety of Chianti. It opens with delicate floral notes of sweet violet, followed by hints of ripe red fruit; to complete this aromatic experience, spicy references emerge that add depth and complexity.
The sip traces the same nuances that the sense of smell anticipated. It has a well-worked tannic texture, which gives structure and balance to the wine. The persistence of the flavor is remarkable, leaving a memorable memory.
Characterized by a balance between sugars, alcohol and fixed acidity, which further enhances the aromas and preserves them over time.
The perfect choice to accompany traditional Tuscan dishes such as Florentine steak or pasta with meat sauce.
