Tasting note

Tenuta Sant’Alfonso is one of the two prestigious crus produced today with 100% Sangiovese grapes cultivated exclusively on the Sant'Alfonso estate. The result is this opulent, juicy Chianti Classico, which is awash with fruity overtones of amarena cherries and blackberries, as well as spicy notes of liquorice and coffee. It also boasts a well-balanced, pleasant structure on the palate. Although not classed as a Riserva, with its immensely refined organoleptic qualities, generous body and extensive ageability, it has the characteristics to be a great companion to full-flavoured dishes such as roasts and game.

Producer

Rocca delle Macie

The history and philosophy of Rocca delle Macìe are inextricably linked to the union and importance of the Zingarelli family. Their dedication and passion, for the land and for wine have been handed down from father to son and continue to be nurtured for the next generations. Rocca believe a wine should not only be ‘good to drink’ but also ‘good to think’ and therefore talk about.

Region

Tuscany

Tuscany, one of Italy's most renowned wine regions, is celebrated for its exceptional and diverse wines. Known for its picturesque landscapes and ideal climate, it benefits from a range of terroirs, from rolling hills to coastal areas. The area is particularly famous for its red wines, notably Chianti, made primarily from Sangiovese grapes, which offer bright acidity, cherry flavours, and earthy undertones. It also produces prestigious wines such as Brunello di Montalcino, a full-bodied red with complex flavours and excellent ageing potential, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. For whites, Vernaccia di San Gimignano is noted for its crisp, refreshing character. Tuscany blends traditional winemaking with innovative techniques, offering a rich and varied wine experience.
