From densely planted vineyards on a perfect south-easterly slope near the village of San Leonino, this is a very traditional style of Chianti made from 95% Sangiovese and 5% Canaiolo. It has all the violet and red cherry characters you'd expect, with vibrant acidity and sweet spice lingering on a sumptuous finish. This will be a fantastic partner to roasts, barbeques and pasta dishes.

"In the heart of the Tuscany region lies the area of Chianti, where the Sangiovese grape thrives. Cherry and sweet spice flavours make this fantastic with bbq's and pasta dishes."
