Wine Maker Notes

Drawn from the rolling hills of the Chianti Superiore region, this Sangiovese blend is mid-weight and savoury, with trademark charcuterie-seeking tannins, yet still with this core of ripe fruit. The superiore grapes are fermented in cement tanks using only ind.

Food Pairing

Chianti works effortlessly well with tomato sauces, pizza and pasta bakes. It is an easy-going Italian wine that will be perfect with lasagne, white bean soup, corstini with mushrooms or pecorino cheese.

Varietals

Sangivese

Nose

Aromas of dark berry fruits, plum and herbs.

Palate

Combines wonderful savoury elements, black olive and dried herbs with vibrant red fruits, plum, blackberry. The tannins are soft and grainy, the acid in the back of the palate is subtle yet strong, and the wine finishes with an excellent long minerality.
