WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Villa Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva 2022 presents a ruby red color. Its nose is flattering, with shimmering notes of blackberry, medlar jam, and raspberry jelly blending with elegant impressions of tobacco and a sweet, fresh nuance of licorice, candied lemon peel, and cocoa powder. On the palate, silky, smooth, and tasty tannins emphasize the balance between the full, enveloping attack and the vertical, long, and refined finish, characterized by delicate notes of rose petals and black tea.
TASTING NOTES:
A youthful wine full of fruit, showing intense fresh roses, black cherries and plums. The generous nose is supported by a lush, supple palate with medium body. Velvety tannins with a chalkier finish and refreshing length.
