Medium-dark ruby red in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & mulberries with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes, herbs, mint, some spices & a hint of minerals. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of sour cherries, strawberries & mulberries with herbs, spices & minerals. Lingering finish. Quite accessible at present with decanting & airing. Although made for near time drinkability, it has the limited potential to continue to further develop with additional aging. Very good QPR for an everyday Chianti Classico.

Assemblage majoritaire de Sangiovese avec un apport de Merlot et Malvasia Nera. Robe rubis de moyenne intensité. Nez de fruits rouges et cèdre. Bouche sur un fruité séduisant soutenue par une pointe d’acidité et des tannins souples. Boisé délicat.
