Occasional Wine Note: Another delicious Chianti Classico that adds a delcious twist with the bits of Cabernet and Merlot. Some floral notes, along with ripe red fruits, baking spices, balanced tannin and acidity, and a great mouthfeel highlight this offering.

Juicy and delicious, this opens with aromas of iris, rose, dried aromatic herbs and wild berries. Smooth and medium-bodied, the palate features succulent Marasca cherry, ripe raspberry, ground clove and crushed mint set against taut, finegrained tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced.

An inviting red, with strawberry, cherry, rose hip and floral aromas and flavors allied to an elegant frame. Features a firm backbone of tannins and lively acidity, which provide support, and lingers with bright fruit and a crisp feel.
