Chianti Docg Colli Fiorentini Riserva 2006
Alcohol %: 13%
Grape varieties: Sangiovese - Canaiolo - Trebbiano Toscano - Cabernet S. In spurred cordon with short pruning
Wine-making: Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature
of 27-28° C for about 15 to 20 days.
Ageing: In steel tanks
In oak barrels for six months
Refining: In bottles for at least three months
Characteristics:
Ruby red colour tending to garnet red with ageing. Particular and intense flavour with hints of red fruits, such as black currant, cherry, plum. Particular bouquet of wildflowers, mixed to an herbaceous scent.
The taste is very good, because of the right balance and harmony between the alcoholic part and acidity of the tannins, which are present, but very well distributed.
Best with:
Pasta and rice with meat sauce, stewed meat, roasted white meat, grilled meat, lamb meat, mature cheese. We suggest to open the bottle, few hours in advance.
