Reggine 2020 – Chianti Classico

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity, even pale. The nose is gourmand, warming and offers concentration and juicy aromas of ripe black fruits. It expresses notes of morello cherry, wild blackberry, crushed cassis, black plum, wild strawberry and raspberry coulis, combined with savoury touches of sweet spices (liquorice, ground cumin, nutmeg, cloves, white pepper), a touch of dark chocolate, fresh flowers (rose petals, violet), as well as a racy minerality (graphite, dry gravel) and a touch of mint and dried Mediterranean herbs. The mouth is frank, straight and chiseled. It expresses the flavors of tangy fruits (bigarreau cherry, crunchy strawberry, raspberry, morello cherry, cassis, blueberry), dried herbs (mint, basil, Mediterranean herbs), sweet spices (liquorice, cumin, nutmeg) and flowers (rose petals, violet). The tannins are grippy, but fine, with good bitterness. Beautiful salivating acidity, good persistence and juiciness on the finish.
