A smooth medium-bodied wine hugely enjoyable now. It has aromas of cola, tarragon and black cherries, all of which follow through onto the palate. Supple with cherry finish, it reflects the great quality of 2016 vintage.
Cinciano Chianti Classico DOCG
A well-structured wine with more weight and body than the 2018. It has earthy dark fruits, graphite notes and treacle flavours. A dry year, the vines struggled under drought conditions so that very small berries were produced with high sugar and flavour concentration. Dark and cooked fruit characters with denser structure characterize the year.
Cinciano Chianti Classico DOCG
Starting to evolve with mellow fruit aromas combined with meaty notes leading to a smooth palate. It is fine in texture with ripe dark fruits, bitter almond and oranges on the finish. A lot more rain fell in 2018 leading to a lighter style.
