  surprising, delicious refreshing red

  much more than just a 'standard Italian' - this tastes beautifully of complex, warm-earth-on-a-sunny-day loveliness. Great with good ham.

  Light, full of depth and surprises

  I bought this expecting a typical chianti. The nose is fresh fruit, the initial taste is delicious sour cherry and hint of plum skins. The robustness referred to is much more - pencil, earth layers, finishing with length but without a bitter tannic aftertaste. Superb.

  just an ordinary chianti

  this has to be the biggest let down in the Majestic wine world that I have experienced. It is so very, very ordinary, almost flat tasting, look for something else for your money.

  Outstanding!

  Bags of character and typically Italian with cherry and red fruit overtones. Good value, especially compared to more famous Tuscan DOC wines.

  A very delicious light red.

  Red cherry fruit flavours, long on the palate and very vibrant. Fresh and light with little bit of spice in there too. Perfect with a nice Lasagne. Great with food but I had the enjoyed the second bottle on its own and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Press Reviews

• • The Times

  Lively, red meat-loving (2010 Vintage)

  "The more I taste Tuscany’s chunky seaside reds, the more I like them, so lap up this lively, red meat-loving 2010, whose herby, bitter cherry fruit is mostly sangiovese with a dash of ciliegiolo (Jane MacQuitty, The Times, 5th May 2012)"

• • Guardian

  It's another graceful, fresh-tasting red (2010 Vintage)

  "It's another graceful, fresh-tasting red that would drink well with springtime grills (morellino is the local name for sangiovese in that part of Tuscany) (Fiona Beckett, Guardian, 14th April 2012)."

• • Observer

  flavours of soft, sweet-and sour red cherries (2010 Vintage)

  "There's an evocative waft of wild herbs which, together with the flavours of soft, sweet-and sour red cherries, places this wine unmistakably in Tuscany. It's made in the south of the region from the same grape as Chianti, plus a little of the local Ciliegiolo, and it's just as foodfriendly: I'd have it with pasta and a really meaty ragu. (David Williams, OBSERVER, 29th January 2012)"
