Description:
Transparent ruby red color, good intensity. A kind of aromatic relaxation could be pointed out as the true leit-motiv of this vintage’s version of Le Corti. Its complexity develops well on the nose displaying a fragrant yet slightly alcoholic palette of violets and cherries, tobacco and plums, dried rosemary and soil. There is good density to the balanced, tasty, satisfying and very focused flavors, framed by a beautifully textured tannic sensation, while the typical freshness of San Casciano’s Chianti Classicos provides finesse and quite remarkable length, ending in captivating flavors of sour cherries and dark tobacco.
