2018 Villa Trasqua Chianti Classico Riserva Fanatico 750ML
Between Siena and Monteriggioni is the historic estate of Villa Trasqua surrounded by 120 hectares of vineyards, olive groves and forests. The winery brings a very long winemaking tradition, traceable even to the year 1001. Franco Bernabei “Mr. Sangiovese” is the oenological consultant of the winery. With his enthusiasm for the Sangiovese grape variety, he led Villa Trasqua to new oenological heights.
Intense ruby red with very light garnet hues. The impact on the nose is sweet with elegant fruity notes of black cherry and canned berries (cassis and black mulberry), the enveloping aroma is amplified by spicy vanilla nuances, cloves and cinnamon. In the glass it opens up with hints of milk chocolate and roasted coffee. Its fruity palate is definitely of blackcurrant. The wine is dynamic and fresh with fine tannins that strengthen and lengthen the sip, without weighting down the structure. The finish is savoury and tasty with citrus and morello cherry on which spicy aromas of sweet liquorice are grafted.
