This is an immediate and cheerful red wine made with 95% Sangiovese and tiny parts Canaiolo, Malvasia Nera and Colorino in complementary roles. The 2019 Chianti Classico shows a lot of balsam character with cherry cola, dried rosemary and eucalyptus oil. These medicinal aromas add to the vertical lift of the wine and the general freshness, with plenty of purple fruit and plum at its core. There are hints of almond-like bitterness and the tannins are firm. This is a production of exactly 18,032 bottles.
