A structured and characterful Chianti Riserva, the 2020 opens with lifted aromas of red cherry, raspberry and wild berries, layered with notes of violet, leather, cocoa and sweet spice. The palate is dry, savoury and well-built, with vibrant acidity and firm yet refined tannins giving shape and precision. Hints of earth, tobacco and balsamic herbs add depth, while the wine maintains a polished, velvety texture from extended oak ageing. The finish is long, balanced and gently spicy — a classic yet modern Sangiovese expression with both richness and freshness. Ideal with bistecca alla Fiorentina, grilled ribeye, roast lamb, pasta with ragù, porcini risotto or aged cheeses — dishes that complement its acidity, tannin and savoury depth.
