Chianti Classico Riserva "Pivate"

A testament to the longstanding winemaking heritage of the Chianti Classico region, Riserva
wines are aged longer and often showcase greater depth and finesse. This extra time in barrel
and bottle refines the wine’s structure and highlights its classic Tuscan roots.

varieties in smaller percentages.

Taste & Aroma
Aromas of ripe red cherries, violet, and earthy undertones. On the palate, firm yet refined

to a lingering finish.

pasta sauces. It also pairs well with mature cheeses and roasted poultry.
