Fattoria Rodáno Chianti Classico 2016

Tuscany, ItalyThe original farm of Rodáno dates back to the Middle Ages. Today, the vineyards spread to more than 100 hectares, located at 200-300 metres, and has been in the Pozzesi family since the 1950s. Vittorio Pozzesi (President of the Chianti Classico Consortium) and his son Enrico manage the winery, advised by winemaker Giulio Gambelli. Leather, walnut, chestnut, dried cherry and finely gritty spicing track across this old school Chianti Classico, predominantly sangiovese but with splashed with canaiolo & colorino. Tannins are worn soft, and acidity is moderate. Coloured with autumnal notes, this medium-bodied red is perfectly situated for drinking now.Tasted: 11 September 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
