Palate
Mouth filling berry fruit flavors, seductive cinnamon and cherry marmalade, great balance, complex structure. Extremely long finish thanks to its vibrant acidity
Growing Conditions
Production Area: Chianti Classico
Rainfall and temperatures over the winter were average. Spring was mild and rainy in the early part of the season, while there was no rainfall from late April through May. The rain between June and July helped to ensure a good water reserve and allowed the vines to develop even earlier than usual. A very hot, dry August, helped by cool September nights, completed the ripening of the grapes.
Sangiovese of average acidity and good colour extractability. The final results will be a superb quality wine.
