Description

This has lovely dark plums, fresh herbs and violets. On the palate its tightly knit and elegant with a firm row of tannin, running through layers of pretty berries. The Chianti Classico Rubiolo (100% Sangiovese) shows a delicately spicy side to the bouquet with cherry and blackberry that is nicely ripened but not overripe. This is an extremely balanced and precise wine. I can’t image that these results were easy to achieve given the harsh, hot and dry conditions of the growing season. The finish is soft and velvety. Pair this with a rabbit dish.
