A lively, ruby-red wine that expresses character, freshness and terroir, and is laden with aromas of cherry and violet. Well-suited to a wide range of entrees including beef, chicken and pasta in flavorful sauces. A blend of 90% Sangiovese, 5% Canaiolo and 5% Merlot.
The late Italo Zingarelli, a highly-acclaimed Italian film producer best known for his classic spaghetti westerns, purchased Rocca delle Macie properties in Castellina in Chianti in 1973 and thus embarked on a career as one of Chianti Classico's more unlikely wine producers. Thanks to his dedication and passion and that of his son Sergio, who now oversees the property, Rocca delle Macie has become one of Tuscany's leading wine estates.
