Hailing from Radda in Chianti this beautiful 100% Sangiovese is grown at pretty high altitude (about 1470 ft) and is facing the most famous Pergole Torte vineyard. The wine shows a ruby red core with clear rim. The nose is seducing with ripe raspberry, cherry, violet and crushed flowers. As it opens it shows more of mineral spine and spices and a touch of smoke. In the mouth it is medium plus body with good acidity and medium tannins. I really liked it and am curious to see how it will evolve.

Overtook other brunello after 15 min of opening up. Picked from cellar with sommelier. Chewy. Great Chianti’s Reserva. Will try to fin in US. Still tasing from last sip >1 min ago.
