Chianti Classico Riserva 2021 Tenuta Perano – Marchesi Frescobaldi A refined and powerful expression of the prestigious Chianti Classico terroir, this Tenuta Perano Riserva 2021 comes from one of the most remarkable estates owned by the historic Frescobaldi family, whose winemaking legacy spans over seven centuries. Located in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, the Perano estate is characterized by high-altitude vineyards and amphitheater-like slopes, ensuring optimal sun exposure and significant temperature variations—key elements for producing wines of exceptional structure, elegance, and aromatic precision. In the glass, it reveals a deep, intense ruby red color. The bouquet is rich and complex, with aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, and wild berries, enhanced by refined notes of violet, sweet spices, and well-integrated oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and harmonious, supported by firm yet polished tannins and a vibrant freshness. The finish is long, persistent, and beautifully balanced, with a distinctive mineral character that reflects its unique terroir. Aged in oak barrels to achieve depth and complexity, this Riserva stands out for its aging potential and collectability, making it an excellent choice for both immediate enjoyment and long-term cellaring. A sophisticated and highly desirable bottle from one of Tuscany’s most iconic producers. Perfect pairing: grilled red meats, game, rich pasta dishes, aged cheeses.
