Chiandrè

The organoleptic characteristics of our Chianti Classico change in accordance to the specific climatic differences in the year of production. This wine is a result of a synthesis between respect of the oldest traditions and the search for innovation in the new clones of Sangiovese and production techniques.
One year after making the Sangiovese wine, 5% Canaiolo and a 5% Merlot, which in turn have been aged for one year in barriques is added. The wine has a bright ruby red color initially that, with aging, evolves towards a beautiful garnet colour. It has an excellent persistence and consistency, made evident by the formation of the "larches" that form and descend slowly from the inner wall of the glass in which the wine was poured.
The perfume is intense, fine, ethereal and spacious with hints of violets and fruit. The taste is dry, warm, velvety, smooth and above all balanced and well structured. It is a wine suited to aging.
