Nose

Always harmonious, this wine reveals lovely fruity aromas on the nose.

Palate

A palate that displays all of its elegance in a well balanced profile and impressive length.

Growing Conditions

Production Area: Chianti Classico

Heavy snow in February produced a good water supply. Thanks to a warm, sunny spring, the first buds appeared on the younger vines in the middle of April and the Sangiovese flowered at the end of May. Summer’s moderate temperatures and rain accelerated the various growing phases.
The Sangiovese started to colour on the vine towards the end of July, early compared to normal.
The ripening of the fruit was then delayed, however, by the rather low temperatures at the end of the summer.

Appearance

It presents a concentrated ruby appearance with faint purplish highlights that with time and ageing will evolve into a deeper red colour.
