Dark garnet color. Aromas and flavors of red cherry, dried black cherry, herbs, and leather and tea with a round, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, stimulating, medium-length finish that shows nuances of red cherry, basil, leather, and rose pedals in tea with chewy, medium, firm tannins and light oak flavor. A quintessential pasta friendly Chianti.

Tuscany Chianti

Red wines from the seven regions of Tuscany that fall under the Chianti DOCG contain a strong backbone of Sangiovese grapes with room for the addition of Canaiolo, Trebbiano, Malvasia, and a few other lesser-known varietals.
