Natural Chianti!

From our friends over at Rosenthal Wine Merchants...

\"Giovannas flagship wineformerly a Chianti Classico but proudly a Toscana Rosso since she wearied of the red tape and exited the appellation in 2012comprises almost entirely Sangiovese, head-trained and densely planted, with splashes of interplanted indigenous varieties (Colorino, Mammolo, Foglia Tonda, and Ciliegiolo). Fermented in open-top oak casks and aged in a combination of large botti and 500-liter barrels (all well used), Le Trame expresses powerful, punchy minerality and a purity of fruitrobustly healthy, untampered fruitthat soars from the glass. The 2017 was birthed from a rollercoaster vintage (frost, heat, drought) but drinks with silken grace, brimming with darkly dusty cherry fruit possessing a gently medicinal edge, and framed by bracing acidity and palate-cleansing freshness.\"
