Tasting note:
From a single vineyard in front of the cantina, this is a blend of Bordeaux varieties with 10% Sangiovese, matured in French oak for 10 months. There’s a heady nose of plum, damson, cocoa and wild Tuscan herbs. The palate is glorious and harmonious, with fruit depth and warm oak spice, framed by glossy tannins and sapid, crunchy-berry freshness.
Tasting notes:
Intense and persistent nose with clear hints of blackberry and blueberry in prevalence; dense aromas of jam and notes of Mediterranean spices emerge in progression. The attack on the palate is soft and harmonious; the finish ample and enveloping, supported by a backbone of pleasant acidity.
Tasting Notes:
Intense and well outlined nose, very refined: evolving with black berries, together with clear balsamic and Mediterranean traces. Perfectly integrated oak with spicy sweet notes and an elegant boisé in thè finish.
Tasting notes:
Fragrant and bright on the nose, Ciampoleto Rosso di Montalcino delivers juicy red berries and baking spice on the palate. Supple tannins and vibrant acidity refresh and the lingering finish begs another sip.
Tasting notes:
San Giorgio Ugolforte presents a dark core of red and black berry fruit layered with earth, leather, smoke, and herbs. Complex and elegant, the wine is full on the palate and firm in tannin structure. Refreshing acidity frames a graceful finish. Classic Brunello di Montalcino.
Considered the best red wine in the world. Thanks to its excellent qualities it is without any doubt a wine for great occasions. The long four-year ageing, part of wich in wood, gives it a strong body, a long intense smell and a wrapping full taste with hints of vanilla and tobacco.
Bright red fruit and Indian spice notes of cinnamon, nutmeg and white pepper fill the nose. Delicious ripe fruit flavours with good mid-palate definition. Textured and balanced with a spicy savoury finish.
SETTE is the end result of a great fusion of the concentration of Cabernet Sauvignon with the fine, elegant floral notes of Sangiovese. The pleasant and refined notes of wood are well merged with the wine, adding to SETTE a balanced vanilla flavour, which is typical of French oak barrels.
The 2014 Le Difese is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Sangiovese that shows bright berry nuances and a tangy, energized personality. The bouquet is simple and straightforward with a low-key fruit profile that does not stray from the original intention of this wine—to create a home for the estate's Sangiovese and to offer a simple, food-friendly, entry-level red.
The centerpiece of Querciabella's winemaking operations since the winery's debut, Querciabella Chianti Classico has consistently ranked at the highest levels of critical acclaim while delighting wine enthusiasts the world over.Querciabella's Chianti Classico represents the pinnacle of high-altitude, perfectly exposed Sangiovese fruit. A beautiful balancing act of crisp, inviting acidity, pure varietal fruit flavour and character deriving from sourcing the grapes from top sites in three of the the denomination's best sub-zones. A wine and food lovers' delight. Grapes are carefully selected in the vineyards, and harvested by hand into 8 kilo crates. They are destemmed, never crushed, then conveyed into temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, where alcoholic fermentation and maceration take place. Maceration lasts about 12 days. After completing full malolactic fermentation, the wine is transferred into barriques and tonneaux. The oak is 100% French (5% new, remainder consists of second and third-fill barrels). The wine is regularly racked and tasted during the entire maturation period, which may last up to 14 months.
