The Cerchiaia is a classical Chianti with 100% Sangiovese, the typical variety for Tuscany. Castelfalfi is a 5 star resort built into a mediaeval village that also produces a small amount of premium wines. Although it has spent time in barrique the focus of this wine is on the interplay between cherry and plum aromas on one side and herbal ones of oregano and bay leaves on the other. This and the acidity that Sangiovese delivers make it an excellent pairing for food, definitely with Italian dishes! The Cerchiaia is a wonderfully complex and long lasting wine. Enjoy it!
