2023 Vallepicciola Chianti Classico DOCG 750ml

Crafted in the heart of Tuscany, this Chianti Classico embodies tradition and modern finesse. Made from 100 percent Sangiovese grapes grown in the hilly vineyards around Castelnuovo Berardenga, the wine reflects the purity of its terroir and vintage. The nose is vibrant and expressive, with aromas of ripe red cherries, dried herbs, violets and hints of soft spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fresh acidity and polished tannins that support flavors of cherry, plum, and subtle earthy undertones. The finish is clean and lingering with a refined elegance. This wine pairs beautifully with grilled meats, tomato-based pastas, aged cheeses or rustic Tuscan cuisine. While approachable now, it also benefits from short-term cellaring to develop added complexity.
