The color is bright ruby, the nose unveils layers of iris, violet, tobacco, black pepper and marasca cherry. The taste is well balanced, tightly knit with supple tannins, mineral notes, a mouth cleansing fresh acidity. Warm and persistent. Pair with first courses such as pasta. Meat dishes and moderately aged cheeses.

Chopped mint, woodland herb and wild berry aromas lead the nose. Juicy and bright, the palate delivers succulent Marasca cherry, crushed raspberry, licorice and white pepper accompanied by taut, refined tannins. Drink 2021-2029.

Badia a Coltibuono's 2017 Chianti Classico is a soft, fruity wine to drink now and over the next handful of years, before the fruit fully fades. This is an especially light, fleeting wine, even within the context of the year.
