Description
Made in the medieval, walled village of Volpaia high in the hills of Radda in Chianti, Volpaia Chianti Classico is a benchmark Tuscan red that marries centuries-old tradition with modern precision. Crafted primarily from organically farmed Sangiovese, with a subtle touch of Merlot for plushness, the 750mL bottle pours a brilliant ruby hue that hints at the freshness within. The first swirl lifts aromas of ripe black cherry, crushed violets, and wild herbs, followed by undertones of warm cedar and a whisper of sweet tobacco from patient aging in Slovenian and French oak.
On the palate, juicy red berries mingle with notes of pomegranate, blood orange zest, and a savory trace of dried thyme. Lively acidity—Chianti’s hallmark—keeps the fruit vivid while polished tannins glide to a lingering finish of cocoa and cracked pepper. Medium-bodied yet layered, this wine shines alongside classic dishes like Bistecca alla Fiorentina, hearty pastas, or a simple plate of aged Pecorino.
