A Tuscan Chianti red wine from one of the most famous Italian wineries. Tenuta Perano Chianti Classico is born on the hills of Gaiole in Chianti, where the combination of elevation, sun exposure, and the shape and slope of the vineyards offers an extraordinarily unique quality setting that results in brilliant purple wines of intensely fruity aromas and a great tannic structure rife with elegance.

Tenuta Perano Chianti Classico has a beautiful, bright ruby-red colour. Red and black berries aromas are accompanied by floral notes such as sweet violet and a subtle, delicate spice. Finally, the profound elegance is highlighted by a splendid freshness. In this exceptionally balanced vintage: Harmonic, dry, pleasant and with good tannins that improve over time, the wine finishes like velvet. Enjoy with full-flavoured dishes such as pappardelle pastain a meat sauce, as well as roast chicken, sautéed beef with vegetables, and medium-aged cheeses.

Tenuta Perano is a unique estate in a land extraordinarily suitable for grape growing. A natural amphitheatre to capture the light and warmth of the sun. The Perano estate is located in the heart of Chianti Classico in Gaiole and enjoys exceptional climate and soil. The vineyards are located 500 meters above sea level, well above the altitude common for red variety grapes, especially Sangiovese with its late maturation phase.

For 700 years the Frescobaldi family has combined tradition, experience and innovation with creativity and the pursuit of excellence. The family has always looked to develop and celebrate the diversity of Tuscany’s terroir, being proud owners of some of the greatest vineyards in this region.
