Tasting Note

A Chianti Classico that truly embodies a sense-of-place. A gorgeous wine with aromas of tart cherries, strawberries, and violets. A soft and exciting structure invites notes of blueberries, cedar and red oranges on the palate. Each sip is framed by pleasant acidity and finishes with warm notes of white pepper and licorice.

Product Notes

Tenuta di Arceno Chianti Classico is a prestigious red wine hailing from the historic wine region of Tuscany, Italy. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this wine is made predominantly from Sangiovese grapes, with small amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot adding complexity and depth. The result is a rich, full-bodied wine with aromas of ripe cherries, blackberries, and herbs. On the palate, flavors of dark fruit, tobacco, and a hint of spice are complemented by well-integrated tannins and a lingering finish. This Chianti Classico is a perfect pairing for hearty dishes such as grilled steak or pasta with tomato sauce. Tenuta di Arceno Chianti Classico is a true gem of Italian winemaking, offering an authentic taste of Tuscany in every glass.

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.
