One of the nicest observations you might wish to hear as a wine producer in the Chianti Classico DOCG region of Tuscany is that the contents in the bottle are described as 'very Radda.' This signifies a Chianti Classico with obvious refinement, which in this case derives in no small part from the high altitude of the prized Radda zone. This area's cool conditions are easy to sense in this wine's smooth, palpable crunchiness, a Chianti Classico hallmark. Picking at optimum ripeness is vital for Sangiovese to show its brisk silkiness and finesse. The grapes ferment in a newly constructed, low-energy winery built into the rock. Small amounts of Colorino and Canaiolo grapes add colour and spice to the Sangiovese.

Bright ruby red. On the nose lots of blackberries and cherries, violets as well as some pencil mint. Agile and juicy on the palate, refreshing acidity, fully ripe tannin, builds drive, herbs on the finish, persists.
