Description
Chioccioli "Fossifoco" Chianti Classico Riserva, Tuscany, Italy, 2015
Grapes: A blend of Sangiovese and Merlot, hand harvested, aged 18 months in French oak barrels
On the nose, wonderfully complex aromas of fruit, herbs and subtle beautiful notes of the wood ageing. The attack on the palate is supple and very refined with velvet tannins. Flavours of ripe red fruit, spices and a fresh acidity. The aftertaste is pleasant and the finale is endless.
Stefano Chioccioli is a real Italian maestro – he’s been awarded over 100 Tre Bicchiere wines at Gambero Rosso and even the much coveted 100/100 points from Robert Parker. Latterly, Stefano has turned his hand to his family estate in Chianti, which he runs with his two sons.
Food Match: Florentine beef steak, roast or braised veal, game, Tuscan sausages & beans, roast lamb with rosemary & garlic, charcuterie boards with cured meats olives & nuts, dark chocolate desserts .
