Tasting Note

The 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva exudes aromas of cedar, cypress, and rose, accompanied by raspberry and vanilla bean. On the palate, flavours of bright strawberries and cherry liquor dominate followed by secondary flavours of cacao and coconut. This cooler 2019 vintage produced Sangiovese with soft, round edges and vibrant acidity, ultimately creating a savoury wine with pleasant minerality and elegance. The long finish lingers with notes of fine black tea and citrus tones of ripe oranges.

About the Winery

Tenuta di Arceno

Tenuta di Arceno has passed through the hands of three different families over the years. Two of them, the De Jaja family and the Piccolomini family, are prominent Italian families. The Del Jaja family purchased the land bit by bit in 1504, indulging in estate expansion and agricultural enhancements. In 1829, the Piccolomini family bought the estate from the Del Jaja family. The Piccolominis added to the estate's beauty by building gardens, lakes and villas in the estate. In 1994, the estate came under the Jackson family's ownership when Jess Jackson and Barbara Banke bought it. The estate is among the first estates of the Jackson family outside California.
