Santa Margherita Chianti Classico Riserva 750ml
TASTING NOTES:
The aromas of this complex red wine range from cherries and plums to gladiolus flowers and earthy flint. The tannic, oak-aged flavors are bright and round, with a dry, warm, earthy finish.
FOOD PAIRINGS:
Best enjoyed with very flavorful dishes, such as tomato-based sauces, mushroom ravioli, beef or pork roasts, and game meats from venison to pheasant. Santa Margherita Chianti Classico Riserva is also excellent with mature cheeses.
THE DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
The nuanced, layered flavors of this wine begin with the blending of juice from three different grape varietals: predominantly Sangiovese with the addition of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. We use a two-stage fermentation process to develop the wine’s full, round flavor and character. After two years of aging in French oak barrels and an additional three months aging after bottling, Santa Margherita Chianti Classico is released to the market and ready for you to share at your table.
