Ecco Domani Chianti
Sangiovese (San-gee-oh-vay-zay) is the
main grape component of Chianti, one of Italy’s best known wines.
Our Sangiovese grapes originate in the hills between the Provinces of
Siena and Florence within the renowned Chianti area of Tuscany. This
area is known for a warm, sunny growing season, with substantial temperature
differential between day and night. Such conditions produce flavourful,
rich grapes. The cultivation of these grapes can be traced back through
the centuries to ancient Greece and Rome. In fact, the word Sangiovese
is derived from Latin "sanguis Jovis" or the blood of Jupiter.
True to its name, Ecco Domani Chianti is a brilliant ruby red wine that
is dry, yet balanced, fresh and fruity.
Ecco Domani Chianti is a clear, ruby-red color,
with a deeply fruited bouquet of cherries and fresh red fruit entwined
with spicy, peppery notes. This wine is lively and fresh on the palate,
with soft, rounded tannins followed by a long, fine finish.
