gabbiano chianti classico rs

750ML

2015

A limpid, full ruby red color. The nose is fine, wide, with excellent fruity notes on a sweet and spicy background. A vigorous body with excellent tannins well in balance with the freshness given by the acidulous nerve. Fine, elegant and complex.

Pairing perfect with roasted red meats rich in spices, game with rich sauces; interesting with aged cheese.

The Chianti Classico Riserva offers a thin and streamlined approach with bright cherry and forest berry aromas to keep it going. That said, one of the most interesting qualities on offer here is the low price point. You get an authentic taste of Sangiovese (blended with 5% Merlot) and Chianti Classico in what is a basic and stripped-down Riserva expression. Some 160,000 bottles were made.
