Sant'Orsola Chianti DOCG
Description
Sant'Orsola Chianti DOCG is an un-oaked, traditional Sangiovese-dominant red wine from Italy's Tuscany region that beautifully captures the youthful, fruit-driven charm of classic Italian table wines with a light rustic edge. On the nose, this characteristic Chianti shows a captivating bouquet of bright red cherry, sour cranberry, and wild redcurrant, seamlessly layered with dried violet petals, tomato leaf, potting soil, and a touch of light herbal spice. The palate is light-to-medium-bodied, lively, and beautifully balanced, offering an energetic texture with vibrant flavours of crunchy raspberry, fresh red plum, and wild bramble fruit supported by notes of savoury anise, black tea, and a subtle earthiness, while fine-grained, slightly rustic tannins and a high, mouth-watering acidity keep its structure focused. The finish is clean, dry, and refreshing, lingering on red berry skins, a touch of white pepper, and a clean, food-friendly minerality, making it a perfect pairing for classic pasta Bolognese, wood-fired Margherita pizza, roasted meats, or cured Italian salumi.
