Villa la Pagliaia Chianti Classico

Villa la Pagliaia Chianti Classico DOCG is an approachable and vibrant expression from the southern Chianti Classico zone in Tuscany, Italy. Crafted primarily from Sangiovese (95%) with a touch of Merlot (5%), the wine is produced from 25-year-old vines rooted in rocky clay soil. Following fermentation and a brief maceration, the wine matures for 10–12 months in Slavonian oak casks. This process results in a fruit-forward style characterized by bright, juicy red fruit. The nose offers ripe plum and cherry with lightly floral notes. On the palate, expect flavors of redcurrant and bramble fruit, supported by fresh acidity and supple tannins. This structure makes it an excellent match for spicy pasta dishes, sausages, and red meat.
