A blend of 80% Sangiovese, 15% Canaiolo, and 5% Syrah, this Chianti Classico has a lovely, intense, and perfumed nose that is savoury with black cherry, leather, and earthy mineral aromas. It's medium-full bodied on the concentrated palate with impressive depth of fruit supported by lively acids. Lovely cherry, herb, and wood spice flavours on the palate with more savoury and cherry notes lingering on the finish, with excellent length. Tasted Nov/2019.
