Impeccably balanced with plenty of dark chocolate, black cherries and cigar box aromas. The finish displays the elegance of sweet vanilla from the French oak aging. Forward red and black fruits are lush and coat the mouth, while chewy tannins offer up a powerful grip. Profoundly elegant today, but it's future magnificence is guaranteed and well worth the wait! - Monna Claudia is very dark garnet red in color. The wine shows intense Morello cherry aromas with coffee and freshly turned earth. There is a deep wild strawberry and blackberry core to the flavor profile, ripe yet firm tannins help the fruit fully emerge in the mouth. Talk about knock your socks off!! Perfect with grilled meats and rich cheeses. But honestly, we find every excuse to drink it with everything or just on its own!!
- Bright aromas and flavors of raspberries and strawberries with racy and lean acidity is predominate. Moderate tannins and naturally high acidity gives this wine additional complexity and length.

The wine has a rich deep cherry, black fruit and fresh berry forward taste with deep wonderful structure and color. Luscious plum, cinnamon, wild strawberries with a ruddy cherry sweetness fill up this extra voluptuous and sultry Chianti Classico. The fruit is well balanced and made bright by great acidity. Elegant and lengthy in the finish. Unrefined and unfiltered, to preserve every bit of the perfect Sangiovese fruit.
