Deep and vibrant ruby red. The nose is a concentrated mixture of blackcurrant, raspberry, blueberry and black cherry, with intense cinnamon and leather spice. Firm tannins provide texture and grip.
Enjoy with most Italian cuisine. Rich tomato based dishes, cured meats and the odd Sunday roast (chicken, beef, lamb).
Harvested in the second half of September, this wine is aged for two years before bottling.
In 1927, Alberto Bartali and his wife Leda Pucci founded their estate in the heart of the Chianti zone, on the slopes of the hill on which stands the town of Monteriggioni. Under the management of their son Rivo, the estate took on a more important role in the wine market, extending know-how and commitment to high quality production. The passion and love for the Tuscan land were passed down from Rivo to his children Alberto, Wanda and Maria, and Wanda’s husband Marco, whose joint efforts consolidated and developed the estate. Today, the family tradition continues with their children Filippo, Linda and Andrea.
