Deep ruby red color, with garnet reflections that tend to accentuate with aging. On the nose, the wine unfolds an intensely fruity aromatic bouquet, with dominant notes of cherries and berries, enriched by nuances of spices, leather and a light touch of tobacco, evidence of the refinement in oak barrels which adds complexity without overpowering the original freshness of the fruit.
On the palate, Melini's Chianti Classico "Granaio" is balanced and structured, with soft and well-integrated tannins that give the wine a pleasant drinkability. The acidity is well balanced, supporting a medium body and a rich range of flavors that mirror the olfactory bouquet, leading to a long and persistent finish, with a light balsamic note.
Ideal to accompany traditional dishes of Tuscan and Italian cuisine, such as pasta with ragù, roast meats, grilled meats and mature cheeses, the Chianti Classico DOCG "Granaio" is also a perfect wine for convivial occasions, capable of enhancing conviviality and pleasure of the table.

Mandarin blossom, ripe peach, cherries and wild strawberries waft from the glass, then earth and herbs eventually follow on the nose. On the palate, the berries stay sweet and ripe, but notes of bitter citrus and medicinal roots add a sophisticated intensity. Fresh and medicinal on the finish, with eucalyptus, mint and salinity. — Danielle Callegari
