VM020 - Chianti Classico San Jacopo 2009

A very traditional Tuscan grape mix, producing a well - structured fruit driven wine with a deep attractive colour, the use of large oak barrels ensures a classic style. The wine is always released 12-14 months after the harvest, when these characteristics can be best enjoyed. This fresh, young fruity Chianti Classico has all the hallmark bitter cherry and attractive autumnal fruit aromas. To drink, it has some dry tannins, but the overpowering character is of rich, juicy fruit and a lovely clear, clean acidity. The aftertaste is of firm tannins and ebullient fruit.
