Rated 5.00 out of 5 based on 2 customer ratings

Aromatically precise with plenty of sour red cherry and a hint of dried sage. This is savoury and satisfying Chianti – the soft texture of the palate leads into gritty tannins – the type that work so wonderfully with steak or rich protein. There’s a charry element to the wine as well, that keeps things deep, dark and mysterious to the end.

Got introduced to this fab chianti at a restaurant in Christchurch. So good, so memorable, so set out on a mission to add this to the wine rack. Glad to have tracked down.
