Frescobaldi Tenuta Peruano Chianti Classico

93 Points - James Suckling

#36 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2020

Tenuta Perano 2015 is a brilliant purple wine with a floral nose enhanced by fruity notes of wild blackberry, raspberry and cherry, which lead into balsamic highlights of eucalyptus and thyme accompanied by mineral touches of graphite and spicy pink pepper. The tannic structure is typical of Chianti Classico, it caresses the palate leaving it clean and fresh. The intense and persistent finishes leaves a pleasant walnut nuance.

Serving suggestions: Ideal with meat ragù and all red meats. The wine is especially well-suited with aged cheeses.
