Description
The Classico zone at the heart of the Chianti region was delimited in 1716, though the wines date back to the 15th century - the time of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. This is a traditionally styled, elegant expression made from 100% Sangiovese.

Tasting Notes
Made from organically farmed Sangiovese, this has aromas of dark-skinned fruit, leather and scorched earth. The savory, medium-bodied palate offers black cherry, star anise and cinnamon alongside smooth polished tannins. Drink through 2025. Score - 90. (Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, May 1, 2022)
