NEW ARRIVAL

Producer tasting notes: "COLOR: Ruby red with vague garnet highlights. AROMA: A bouquet of amaretto, ink, cherries, spice and dark chocolate in an elegant equilibrium with a final touch of leather. TASTING PROFILE: A glorious taste of Chianti Classico in a symphony of power and class, fruit and tannins, complexity and agreeableness. The lengthened finish leaves a frank impression of Sangiovese." - Ruffino

Aging 24 months in oak barrique. Pairing:    prosciutto,  mushroom risotto or chicken cacciatore or your favorite PIZZZA !
