STUNNING 100% ITALIAN SANGIOVESE!
This is a wine that embodies the pure charm of Italy.
Chianti remains one of the most lauded and long-lived wine regions in Italy specialising in the variety Sangiovese. This wine is sourced from a small grower in Chianti Rufina one of the highest and coolest parts of the region resulting in wines that are quite granite rich with a mineral edge and fine acidity. Whilst the majority of the region’s vineyard owners still sell their fruit to large wineries and co-operatives, an increasing number are opting to make small amounts of wine themselves, selling directly under their own label such as Maretti.
This 100% Sangiovese is sourced from a small grower in Chianti Rufina one of the highest and coolest parts of the region resulting in wines that are quite granite rich with a mineral edge and fine acidity. Its soft and supple with trademark savoury edges and nicely poised acidity making it a perfect wine to pair with pizza or pasta dishes. Chianti at its fragrant best.
An amalgam of red berries and black olive complemented by dried herbs adding savoury edge. Fresh and bright palate weight with fine grain tannins that ensures it ends dry. Great drinkability here and a stablemate for a home-made Lasagne or Pappardelle with mushrooms. 12.5% ABV.
