Tasting notes
Distinguished naturally aged wine of world class. Medium intense ruby red. Complex nose of dried black fruit. Mediterranean herbs and oriental spices. Compact taste with fine acidity and strong tannins. Very long finish of mature fruit, cedar, vanilla and cacao. Sublime with roast of game, fowl on the spit, wild mushrooms, black truffle and grilled root vegetables. Serving temperature: 17°C.
Wine Story
My winery is young, my wines just came recently on the market. Wines from my small vineyard plots that I personally planted in small corners in the middle of the woods of the wonderful Chianti Classico, but you found me!
And I am very proud of it.
Now the work continues, I am growing slowly and thanks to the altitude, the soil and climate conditions, the terroir that I have identified for the different wines, I am also growing curiosity and commitment to do better and better. Istine was born as a natural evolution of the entrepreneurship of my good peasant grandparents when I produced the first bottles of Chianti Classico in 2009.

E ne vado molto fiera.
Adesso il lavoro continua, sto crescendo piano piano e grazie all’altitudine, alle condizioni pedoclimatiche, al terroir che ho identificato per i diversi vini, crescono anche la curiosità e l’impegno per fare sempre meglio.
