Packed with ripe red cherries, wild berries, and a hint of violet, this lively Sangiovese is all about freshness and easy enjoyment. A touch of spice and earth gives it just the right amount of depth, while soft tannins and bright acidity keep it super drinkable.
Whether you're pairing it with classic Italian dishes, or just good company, this is the kind of Chianti that doesn't need an excuse - just a full glass and a great meal.

Vintage report
The 2024 growing season in Tuscany was defined by a cool, wet spring followed by a summer that never quite committed to the heat Sangiovese craves — periodic rain events through the summer kept growers watchful and selective work in the vineyard essential. Those who managed canopies well and harvested at the right moment came out ahead; those who hesitated paid for it. It was a vintage that rewarded attentiveness rather than simply good fortune, and the best producers — particularly in Chianti Classico and Montalcino — rose to that challenge.
What landed in the cellar was fresher and more lifted than the riper, more muscular style that warmer years like 2022 tend to produce. Sangiovese shows bright acidity and firm structure with real energy behind it — less about sheer density, more about definition and length. It is too early to draw firm conclusions on the very best Brunello and Riserva releases, which will need time to resolve, but the Rosso and Chianti-level wines are already drinking well and offering genuine pleasure without demanding patience.
