A blend of mostly (95%) Sangiovese and Malvasia Nero, this Chianti Classico delivers a harmonious contrast of herbal earthy flavors intermingled with pure fruity ones. Hallmark Tuscan acidity and firm tannins provide structure without being aggressive or intrusion. This is a classy Chianti Classico that is an easy choice for current drinking with a robust pasta dish or a simply grilled steak.
