The Chianti Classico Riserva Marchese Antinori is an elegant and profound red wine, the pride of Tuscany. Primarily made from Sangiovese grapes, with small complementary additions, it presents an intense ruby color. The nose offers a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, spices, and floral notes. On the palate, it is harmonious, with velvety tannins and a persistent finish. Aged in wood and then in bottle, it best expresses the Chianti Classico terroir, ideal for special occasions at 16-18°C.
