Fattoria Lucignano Chianti
Varietal: Sangiovese
Bottle Size: 750 mL
Region: Tuscany
Medium Red Wines
Medium intensity ruby red. The nose on this wine is intense, overflowing with fruity aromas of black cherry and violets. Soft and medium bodied on the palate it balances rather present tannins with moderate acidity. The fine microclimate and unique soil characteristics surrounding the medieval town of Lucignano, located only a mile outside the western border of the Chianti Classico zone, make it without a doubt the finest cru of the Chianti Colli Fiorentini appellation. Lucignano is extremely consistent in quality, achieving delicious results in every vintage.
Staff Review:
A great example of what chianti has to offer. Good red fruit flavors with a hint of cedar. Light to medium bodied. A perfect complement to your next pasta and red sauce dinner! -Eric
