Alcohol/vol 14%
Deep ruby red color. The wine shows an intense and persistent bouquet, with notes of berries and spices such as licorice and black pepper. Well-harmonized hints of oak. In the mouth, it is well structured and balanced, complex, persistent with notes of red fruits and spices such as black pepper and licorice. Pairs well with grilled red meats, steak, game of hair and feather, stewed and roasted, aged cheeses hard like pecorino.

A very fine riserva with black-cherry, walnut with some cedar aromas and flavors. It’s medium-bodied with lovely tension and a fresh finish. Racy and refined. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

The nose balances tart blackberries and bergamot with a peppery earthiness, while the palate leans into that tangy, almost metallic earthy quality but also has a blast of vivacious acid and some sweeter fruit notes for balance and intrigue. Tannins are pliant, but do provide structure.

The 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva is slightly deeper ruby-hued and brings a touch more density and depth, with ripe black and red fruits, savory Mediterranean herbs, spicy wood, and graphite-driven aromatics. It's rich, medium-bodied, and concentrated, with ripe tannins and a great finish. Aged two years all in oak, drink bottles through 2031.
