Chianti Classico DOCG
Wine Type: Red Wine
Country: Italy
Region: Toscana
Grapes: 100% Sangiovese
Winery Tasting Notes: Intense ruby red color. This Chianti Classico is a juicy, fruity red with blackberry, walnut and coffee-bean character. Medium-bodied with a solid core of fruit and creamy tannins. It’s long and flavorful.

James Suckling: “This is a fresh and medium-bodied red with an array of raspberries, sour cherries, hazelnuts and lemons on the nose. Fine tannins. Juicy finish. Sustainable. Drink now.”
