Comment on noteThe wine
Let me guide you to a gem, a wine that embodies the authentic spirit of Tuscany. This Chianti Classico from Poggio Scalette is an encounter with elegance and depth, an invitation to savor tradition with a touch of modernity.
The Poggio Scalette estate, nestled in Ruffoli, in the heart of Greve in Chianti, is a place where the vine flourishes with singular strength. Here, Sangiovese di Lamole is king, grown with passion to express all the typicity of this terroir. It is a 100% Sangiovese wine, a choice that reflects a commitment to purity and expression of the grape variety.
Its brilliant ruby color is a promise. On the nose, I perceive intense red fruits, notes of blackberry and ripe cherry, enhanced by a hint of pomegranate that brings unexpected freshness. On the palate, this wine reveals a medium body, lively acidity, and tannins that are present but already well rounded. The finish is sapid and persistent, an invitation to a second glass that does not take long to come. The alcoholic and malolactic fermentation takes place in cement tanks, followed by 10 months of aging in the same tanks before bottling, a process that preserves the freshness and purity of the fruit.
This Chianti Classico is an ideal companion for your meals. Imagine it alongside roast lamb with rosemary, or with pasta with homemade sughi di pomodoro. It also pairs wonderfully with chicken stews or aged cheeses. Its structure also allows it to accompany grilled meats and rustic cuisine dishes. Serve it between 16 and 18°C, and don't hesitate to open it a few minutes beforehand so it can breathe and reveal all its nuances.
I recommend it for those moments of sharing, those dinners among friends where conviviality reigns. It is a wine that does not seek sophistication at all costs, but offers a sincere tasting experience deeply rooted in its terroir. A true pleasure to discover and share.
