Valiano - Chianti Classico

2019

Sangiovese, Merlot

Chianti Classico, Italy

From a renowned winegrowing region, a prominent winemaking family, and an ideal vintage year, the 2019 Fattoria di Valiano Chianti Classico is a well-crafted gem. The Sangiovese grapes that make up the majority of this wine benefit from prime soil, sun, and altitude conditions, and the team relies on the strictest certified organic practices. This complex yet approachable medium-bodied wine presents with red and black cherries, wild violets, and whiffs of pipe tobacco. The nine months spent in oak allows for a silky texture and firm tannins. Pair this energetic red wine with an herb-crusted roast meat or hearty baked pasta.
