HOW IT LOOKS
Raspberry red throughout, with ruby red edges
and a dark violet core.
HOW IT SMELLS
Classic Chianti nose! Savoury herbs – thyme,
sage and rosemary backed up tart cherries and
red plums. There’s hints of sundried tomatoes
and maraschino cherry with a rustic earthiness
in the background. Fresh and youthful with a
delicate violet floral note.
FOOD PAIRING
You’ve heard ‘pizza & pasta’ pair perfect with your
Chianti? Well it is true, the solid acidity and tart
cherries love rustic tomato sauce. So why not try
an eggplant parmesan or stuffed mushrooms.
HOW IT TASTES
Out of the gate we are met with flavours of tart
cherries, plums and a tea leaf-like herbal-ness.
The structure and backbone of Sangiovese is
present along with layers of spices and tomato-
esque acidity. The 20% shared between Merlot
and Cabernet Sauvignon give a plummy, cassis,
and dark fruit notes. Tannins are well integrated
with a tingly, drying gum sensation. Body is on
the lighter side of medium making it an easy
weeknight star.
