Comment on noteThe wine
I invite you to discover a gem that embodies the very essence of Tuscany: the Chianti Classico from the Querciabella estate. This wine is a promise of sensory travel, an immersion in a respected terroir and a sublimated tradition.
Chianti Classico is an emblematic appellation of Tuscany, and Querciabella cultivates its vines there with a philosophy resolutely oriented towards organic and biodynamic farming. The estate is committed to respecting the land to extract its most authentic expression. This wine is made from 100% Sangiovese, the king grape variety of the region, and the 2022 vintage is a fine illustration of it.
At first glance, its ruby red color, vivid and deep, will seduce you. On the nose, I perceive a captivating aromatic richness: notes of red fruits such as cherry and raspberry mingle with floral accents of violet. Spicy touches and a light balsamic breath complete this bouquet, testifying to its elegance. On the palate, this Chianti Classico reveals a beautiful structure, with fine and well-integrated tannins. A vibrant acidity brings freshness and dynamism, while the flavors of ripe red fruits intertwine with nuances of damp earth, tobacco and spices, the fruit of 12 to 18 months of aging. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a sensation of balance and harmony.
This Chianti Classico from Querciabella is an ideal companion for traditional Tuscan dishes. Imagine it alongside a bistecca alla fiorentina, a wild boar stew or aged cheeses. Its structure and complexity will enhance these dishes. But it is also perfect for a more intimate tasting moment, a meditative pause where you can fully appreciate its richness. It is a wine that celebrates Tuscan winemaking tradition while demonstrating a modern commitment to quality and sustainability.
