WINE DESCRIPTION
Ricasoli Chianti is a premium Italian wine produced by the historic Ricasoli winery, which has been making wine for over 800 years. The wine is made from Sangiovese grapes amongst others grown in the Chianti appellation, which is known for its rolling hills and ideal climate for grape growing. The vineyards are carefully tended to ensure the highest quality grapes, which are then hand-picked and sorted before being fermented in stainless steel tanks. The resulting wine is a classic Chianti, with a bright ruby color, aromas of red fruit and spice, and a dry, medium-bodied palate with firm tannins and a long finish.
