A bright and vibrant wine with juicy cherry flavours, lifted acidity, balanced and long with a touch of savoury spice on the finish. A great example of how good the simplicity and purity of Barbera d’Asti can be with respect to drinkability and as an everyday food wine. A great value.
This is richer on the nose than the Chianti Classico with a ripe broth of cherries, raspberries, earth, bramble and lovely oak spices. The palate reveals robust and savoury red fruits, plums, earth, elegant barrel spices and brilliant acidity to keep it fresh and alive through the finish. A very nice wine offered at an attractive price.
Deep ruby in colour with minerally, sour cherry nose and a lifted floral note; medium-bodied, dry, elegant, sour cherry flavour with a firm structure.
Black cherry and green herbal character pervades this sturdy, thickly textured wine, supported by firm tannic structure, forward acidity and very dry finish. Drink with robust red meats and tomato-based pastas.
Gabbiano can always be counted on for value and quality in Chianti. This Classico is rich in red berries, violets, plums and well-integrated spice notes. It’s fresh and vibrant on the palate with a bevy of red fruits, plums, savoury spices and some decent tannic structure through the finish. Pair with grilled steak, risotto with mushrooms or roasted pork with garlic, herbs and fennel.
This is a really nice, fruit forward Ripasso that shows a rich nose of kirsch, raspberry, savoury herbs and spice. Red and dark fruits rock on the palate and work well with the smoky cedar, light spice and some structure along a lively finish. A very nice wine at an appealing price.
Complex refined bouquet boasts fleshy dark berry fruit with hints of mulberries, cedary pencil box, a dusting of cinnamon and a pinch of clove. Generously concentrated dark berry fruit shows a touch of sweetness countered by fresh acidity, firm dry tannic bite and dark bakers chocolate. Best with another couple of years in the cellar.
