Tasting Notes

Ruby red with intense cherry, currant, and strawberry notes framed by violet and lavender, plus a light licorice spice. The palate opens softly, then builds with lively energy and ripe tannins into a fresh, savory finish.

Food Paring

Pair with bistecca alla fiorentina, meatballs in tomato sauce, or eggplant parmigiana to match the wine’s acidity and tannin. Aged Pecorino or a cured-meat board also complements its floral-spice character.

Professional Reviews

90 Jeb Dunnuck

"The 2022 Chianti Classico Peppoli is a youthful ruby magenta, and is highly expressive with lively aromas of grenadine, tangerine, fresh flowers, and fresh oregano. This carries seamlessly to the palate keeping all the buoyant vibrancy and fruit through a well-balanced and polished finish. It has fine tannins, and a flourish of toasted smoke cedar spice, with notes of dusty earth and a bit of iron rich gamy feel."
