|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varietal | Chianti Classico (DOCG) | |||
| Region | Italy: Tuscany | |||
| Notes | "Perfumed aromas of fresh red berries, orange rind and licorice. Juicy and refined on the palate, with red fruit flavors complemented by flowers and sweet spices. Finishes with pleasantly juicy, lively acidity that will keep you going back to the glass again and again. The best Chianti Classico from Volpaia in some time; in fact, along with the 2010, this is the best pair of young Chiantis from Volpaia in recent memory." (International Wine Cellar) | |||
