The cooperative focuses on combining the rich heritage of Tuscan viticulture with modern techniques to produce wines of exceptional quality. The Da Vinci Chianti Riserva is made from carefully selected Sangiovese grapes, sourced from the best vineyards within the Chianti appellation. This selection ensures that the wine showcases the depth and complexity for which Chianti Riserva is celebrated. Aged in oak barrels, the wine develops a refined structure and nuanced flavors that are both traditional and captivating.
Upon tasting, the Da Vinci Chianti Riserva unfolds with an elegance and complexity that is truly remarkable. The wine greets the senses with a deep ruby color and an enticing bouquet of dark fruits, such as black cherry and plum, enriched with layers of vanilla, coffee, and spice from its aging process. On the palate, it delivers a rich tapestry of flavors, with the ripe fruitiness beautifully balanced by notes of chocolate, leather, and a hint of tobacco. The tannins are well-integrated and smooth, leading to a full-bodied experience that culminates in a persistent and sophisticated finish. This Chianti Riserva pairs exceptionally well with a variety of culinary delights, including roasted meats, game dishes, truffle-infused pasta, and aged cheeses.
