Chianti Classico DOCG Villa Antinori Riserva 2018 Antinori

Description

Homage to Chianti Classico

This wine, produced in the innovative Chianti Classico winery, confirms and renews the bond and love of the Antinori family with this splendid territory, following a production philosophy made of passion and absolute quality. A tribute to a historic brand of a wine with a long tradition, this label wants to be a refined and coherent expression of what remains a fundamental Italian wine designation, with the skill and competence of a family’s magic touch that, since 1385 continues to make history of Italian great quality wine.

Concentrated ruby red color with light orange glow. To the nose it expresses in the first place scents of dark fruit with blackberries and plums, to then turn towards splashes of damp earth and undergrowth, notes of bark, ash and spice of cloves and cinnamon. Excellent balance between the citrus freshness, which is reminiscent of the red orange, and a well integrated tannin, with balanced alcohol and rich persistence of toasted and slightly smoked references.

Ideal with tasty meat seconds, such as a shin of lamb with herbs or with juniper pig, as well as a mixed grill of meat
