Description:
Da Vinci Chianti 2016 is made with 90% Sangiovese and 10% Merlot grapes. The wine is well-balanced with jammy flavors of ripe plums, cherries and red fruit with a soft mineral finish and round tannins that linger in a long peppery finish.

About the Winery
Da Vinci winery was established in 1961, in Vinci, by 30 local farmers who grouped together to form Cantine Leonardo da Vinci- a winegrowers cooperative. In 1965 Cantine Leonardo da Vinci had collected its first harvest and began selling its wine. Today the cooperative encompasses over 500 hectares of vineyards and is now sold in 47 countries.

Tobin’s Review 3 out of 5
Da Vinci’s Chianti 2016 has a plum hue with cherry and strawberry aromas. The wine is fruit forward with plum flavors that ends with a slightly dry finish.
