Special Instructions
This trio beautifully captures the heart of Tuscany’s winemaking tradition. Chianti Classico Riserva, with its strict aging requirements and deep connection to the Sangiovese grape, is celebrated for its balance of bright cherry fruit, earthy depth, and refined tannins. These wines are not only ideal companions for classic Italian195 fare—think pasta with rich tomato sauce, grilled meats, and aged cheeses—but also offer excellent aging potential, making them a welcome addition to any cellar. Each bottle in this lot tells a story of craftsmanship and the enduring charm of Tuscany’s iconic vineyards.
