Description: | Organically Farmed. 100% Sangiovese. Wine Advocate 94 Points - "From a balanced vintage that delivers acidity and structure, the organic 2021 Chianti Classico reveals a shiny dark garnet color and a clean, mid-weight appearance. There's so much energy and vibrancy on the bouquet, which is a quality that Sangiovese achieves when growing conditions are ideal. Tangy cherry, cassis, blue flower, violet and soft earth give this wine an authentic sense of place. So do the elegant mineral notes. This is a special wine (that is priced very competitively).". This pure Sangiovese bottling comes from a warm part of Chianti Classico, in southern Gaiole. It's a distinctive area with moderately calcareous sandy soils, with vineyards planted on the slopes of the lower-lying hills that characterize these parts. The resulting wines show a generosity in weight, with softer textures, and darker tones to the fruit that are restrained rather than ebulient; the magic of this area is that the aromas and mouthfeel still have beautifully finessed qualities. |
