[SOLD-OUT] Fratelli Nistri Chianti DOCG 2017

DECIDEDLY SANGIOVESE BUT WITH A MODERN TAKE, UPFRONT FRUIT AND PALATE WEIGHT. PERFECT MID WEEK PIZZA OR PASTA WINE
 

"The Fratelli Nistri winery where the Fratelli Nistri Chianti DOCG 2017 is made is one of the oldest in Tuscany, dating back to 1865 when Francesco Nistri set up a wine trading business in Mezzana, on the outskirts of Prato. Today Fratelli Nistri is run by fifth generation family members, Massimo and Fabrizio Nistri.

90% Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Caniaolo.

The wine shows classic Sangiovese dominance made in a modern style – bright cherry fruits, light lifted and pure. The tannins are soft and integrated and there is fantastic Sangiovese acidity keeping the wine fresh and making it a good match with a variety of foods. Cabernet and Merlot are only just evident in a bit of fruit density in the mid palate." - Fratello Nistri
