Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby-red color with youthful intensity. The nose is lifted and expressive, offering notes of red cherry, sour plum, dried herbs, violets, and a subtle hint of spice and oak. On the palate, this Riserva is structured yet refined, with crisp acidity, fine tannins, and a core of ripe red fruit layered with earthy, savory nuances. The finish is long and balanced, with enough concentration to suggest it will continue to develop gracefully over the next several years.

Production
Produced in the heart of Tuscany’s Chianti Classico zone, the wine reflects the region’s hillside terroir, where altitude and well-drained soils help preserve freshness and aromatic precision in Sangiovese. The grapes are carefully harvested and vinified with an emphasis on extracting character and structure while maintaining elegance, followed by aging to build complexity and integrate the tannins.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted meats, grilled lamb, game, and Tuscan-style dishes such as pappardelle with wild boar or a rich tomato-based ragù. It is best served at around 16-18°C, and decanting for 30-60 minutes can help open up the aromas and soften the structure.
