Fiorini (Vinetti de Fiorini) is a traditional, Sangiovese-led Chianti Superiore from Tuscany, built around the region's classic grape. Chianti Superiore DOCG | Sangiovese | Classic Tuscan Tasting Notes It is an honest, clean and fresh Chianti Superiore: it has an intense ruby red colour with violet reflections; it is intense and representative of its variety with notes of fruit and violet. Round and spicy with a long-lasting finish, the good balance of the components has been developed by aging in traditional barrels. Benchmark everyday Chianti: bright cherry, violet and a savoury Tuscan edge. Why you'll love it: A long-time favourite with our customers, and easy to see why. This is classic, food-loving Chianti at a brilliant price, fresh and cherry-bright, made for pasta nights and pizza Fridays. Reviews James Suckling (2022): "Strawberries, violets and licorice on the nose of this fruity red." The Blend Predominantly Sangiovese (around 90%) with small amounts of Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo and a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon for structure. To carry the Chianti Superiore DOCG label, the wine must come from within the Chianti zone, reach a higher minimum strength and age longer than standard Chianti, here in a mix of barriques and larger oak. About Fiorini Vinetti de Fiorini is a Tuscan label made by Gustinvest, created as a classic, traditional expression of Chianti at honest value. While much of Tuscany once chased international grapes, Fiorini puts Sangiovese front and centre, the region's signature variety, for a wine that is authentically, recognisably Chianti. Perfect with tomato-based pasta, margherita pizza, or grilled sausages. The bright acidity and savoury tannins are made for tomato, herbs and char.
