Raw and youthful. Doesn't scream chianti on nose but may just be still in primary fermentation aroma rut

Fresh with a nice body. Surprisingly complex for the orgánica we’ve tried in the past.

Surprisingly complex for an organic wine. None of the rough edges that are usually found in such offerings. Enjoy on its own or in any typical usage. Gouda brings out beautiful vanilla notes.

Deep dark and purple. Fresh but not light. Ripe pears, mulberries, and mild tannins. Not a super fresh sangiovese but not too dry and syrupy like most. Nice and rounded.
