The nose is clean, precise and immediate in its manifestation. The red stem fruit, some traces of wild, shrub berries and tobacco. Floral notes of rose, carnation and lily and balsamic traits anticipate the gentle and spicy spices. Overall it convinces and invites to sip.
On the palate it is in excellent balance between hardness and softness. Consistent and well designed, it stands out for its extreme ease of drinking. The set of hardness shines for the tannic texture while on the other hand the overall creaminess is more than satisfactory. It persists for a long time between aromas of cherry, blackberry and spices.
The Chianti Superiore from Fattoria di Piazzano conquers excellence for its balance, complexity and overall cleanliness. It stands out not only among the Chiantis, but also among the red wines from all over Tuscany.
