Piemaggio Chianti Classico Le Fioraie Riserva
Azienda Agricola Piemaggio
Italy - Toscana - Chianti Classico DOCG

The wine is only produced in the best vintage years, from Sangiovese grapes that are carefully selected at the time of the harvest, and a small part of Colorino, Canaiolo and Ciliegiolo. The south-southwest exposure of the vineyards combined with the altitude of 380-480 meters and the complexity of the soil, mostly composed of galestro and Alberese,  bring to life a wine of excellent structure, elegance and balance - the perfect embodiment of the best qualities of its territory.

The nose is intense, elegant and persistent with hints of berries and violets. On the palate it is well-textured and elegant with a great balance between tannins and acidity.
