Banfi Chianti Classico embodies the best of Tuscan tradition, crafted predominantly from Sangiovese and other traditional Chianti Classico grape varieties. Fermentation takes place with an 8-10 day skin contact, followed by a short period of wood aging before bottling in the summer after harvest.
This ruby-red wine boasts an intense bouquet with notes of cherry, plum, and violet. On the palate, it is fresh, balanced, and true to its varietal character. With its alluring bouquet, rich flavors, supple tannins, and vibrant acidity, Banfi Chianti Classico perfectly reflects the unique personality of this historic appellation.
Versatile and food-friendly, it pairs exceptionally well with meat dishes and complements a wide range of culinary delights.
Food Pairing
Lamb, red meat, and both fresh and aged cheeses, grilled lamb chops with rosemary and Bistecca alla Fiorentina (Florentine steak)
