Chianti Superiore 2019 - Lunar New Year Edition
Intro: The most representative wine of our winery, produced since 1965, it brings together the experience of three generations of Majnoni. A wine made in the vineyard, with grapes harvested in the middle of the harvest period. Full and structured, aged in cement and partly in oak, it is pleasant when young and expresses its best six years after harvest.

Tasting Notes: The 2019 Majnoni Guicciardini Chianti Superiore is elegant, balanced, and authentically Tuscan in character. The bouquet opens with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and plum, intertwined with notes of dried herbs, violet, and a hint of leather. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and lively, featuring bright red fruit flavors complemented by subtle earthy and spicy nuances. Firm yet polished tannins and fresh acidity give structure and vibrancy. The finish is clean, savory, and persistent , a refined Chianti that perfectly reflects its Sangiovese heritage and organic viticulture.
