93 Points Vinous
Bright Red Fruit, cedar, tobacco, white pepper and dried herbs abound, all framed by incisive tannins that give the wine shape as well as energy. It's the sort of wine that is NOT very common in Chianti Classico these days. Readers need to be prepared for a bright, acid-driven Chianti Classico build on super-classic lines

Wine Notes
A blend of 90% Sangiovese with 10% Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo, and Colorino. This wine is the authentic interpretation of a Chianti Classico, with an intense ruby colour with burgundy reflects with the age. Pleasant notes of violet flowers and dry cherry on the nose. The taste is intense and persistent. 

Pairing Suggestion
Pasta dishes, cold cuts, roasted meat and semi dried cheeses.
