Description
"Classically expressed, the bouquet shows dark cherry, thyme, olive, and nutmeg aromas, followed by a juicy palate offering fine texture and dusty tannins. Delightfully styled with complexity, it is a wonderful partner to rich, savoury dishes. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Dec 2024
Complex and approachable, a great drop! Violets, liquorice, cherry and leather aromas flow to medium bodied palate where a subtle savoury spice, dried herbs and red berries is present.
Chianti remains one of the most lauded and long-lived wine regions in Italy specialising in the variety Sangiovese. This wine is sourced from a small grower in Chianti Rufina one of the highest and coolest parts of the region resulting in wines that are quite granite rich with a mineral edge and fine acidity. Whilst the majority of the region’s vineyard owners still sell their fruit to large wineries and co-operatives, an increasing number are opting to make small amounts of wine themselves, selling directly under their own label such as Maretti.
Traditionally vinified in small open stainless-steel fermenters, controlled to twenty-six degrees, and hand plunged daily with fermentation lasting fifteen days. Following fermentation the wine is aged for just over twelve months in large seasoned (2,000 litres) oak casks before bottling and a further six months maturation before release.
