Crociferro Chianti Colli Fiorentini DOCG

Crociferro has a bright ruby red colour, developing light garnet hues after some ageing. The nose is intensely fruity, with Morello cherry and floral notes of red flowers, alongside hints of sweet tobacco. Well-balanced on the palate, it shows evident total acidity and notes of undergrowth, leading to a vibrant and pleasant finish. Crociferro takes its name from the hill that dominates the estate.
