Antinori Pèppoli Chianti Classico 2019

Tuscany, ItalyPeppoli grows in the heart of Chianti Classico on a 50-hectare site planted to most of the typical grapes in Chianti. It was first released in 1988 (vintage 1985) and has been a classic almost since the day it launched. It is a terrific ragu wine, but often the Tuscans will pair it with a classic regional bean soup. Look for a lightish red colour and a floral, aromatic nose of cherries and raspberries. The palate is bright with more earthy, cedary, spicy red flavours that call for food. An impressive bottle of real wine true to form, at a fair price.Tasted: 19 March 2021Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
