Santa Margherita Chianti Classico DOCG

Santa Margherita Chianti Classico DOCG from Tuscany — intense ruby red with vanilla and wild berry fruit aromas, well-integrated oak, and a nuance of spice on the palate that makes this one of the most reliable expressions of Sangiovese from the Chianti Classico zone. 90 points Wine Enthusiast.

Tasting Notes
Intense ruby red with faintly garnet tones. Initial aromatic sensations are sweetish and vanilla-like from barrique maturation. The clean, ethereal bouquet highlights Sangiovese's spicy notes. On the palate, very well-integrated oak gives way to hints of wild berry fruit preserve and spices. 90 points Wine Enthusiast, Silver Medal Concours Mondial de Bruxelles.
