INFO: Most of the soil on the Lilliano estate is 'Alberese' marly limestone, rich in heavy stone. Consequently, it is capable of delaying and slowing down the ripening of the grapes, and this preserves their acidity and aromatic freshness. They have been using organic practices in the vineyard for the last 6 years.
A fresh and vibrant Chianti classico, bright ruby red in colour with notes of red
cherries on the nose. The palate is medium bodied with notes of redcurrants,
cherries, cloves, cinnamon, a touch of violet and a classic spicy finish. The fresh
fruit flavours are supported by soft tannins and a typical, chianti acidity. Perfect with hard cheeses and cured meats.
