Frescobaldi Description
In the heart of the Chianti Classico region, in a natural amphitheatre facing south-west with exceptional pedoclimatic conditions for unique and high-quality results, this Chianti Classico Riserva is born. We are in Gaiole in Chianti, in the vineyards of the Tenuta Perano, located 500 m above sea level, where the Sangiovese is particularly elegant and brimming with personality. Made from carefully hand-selected grapes, it is aged in oak barrels for 24 months.
James Suckling: 93 Points
"A rich, layered red with blackberry, mushroom and walnut aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied, round and juicy with a long, flavorful finish."
Wine Advocate: 92+ Points
"The Frescobaldi 2017 Chianti Classico Tenuta Perano is an elegant and graceful wine with a subtle squeeze of extra density and richness that reminds me of the heat and dry conditions of this vintage. The wine presents classic lines with tart cherry and forest berry aromas backed by crushed rock and limestone. You also get fresh hints of rosemary and crushed violets. You get a lot of drinking pleasure from this fresh and vivid entry-level Sangiovese."
