GRIGNANO - CHIANTI RUFINA - Sangiovese / Canaiolo
Ripe, yet energetic, dark bitter cherry-like fruitiness married with herbal and earthy elements. Polished tannins and its balance make it a delight to drink. This perky wine delivers far more than the price suggests.
Intense ruby red colour. Good complexity nose of red fruits and light spicy notes. Very good structure, ripe soft tannins, excellent drinkability.
