✨ WHY ARDALICO IS DIFFERENT & BETTER THAN ORDINARY CHIANTI CLASSICOS:
1️⃣ 100% Organic & 100% Plant-Based (Vegan):
Unlike traditional Chiantis that use animal-derived fining agents or heavy chemicals, Querciabella practices strict plant-based biodynamic viticulture. The result? Unrivaled fruit purity and a clean, vibrant expressiveness in every sip.
2️⃣ Greve in Chianti High-Altitude Terroir:
Sourced from organically farmed, high-altitude vineyards in Greve in Chianti, Ardalico showcases brilliant natural acidity, silky tannins, and an elegant floral lift rather than over-extracted heaviness.
3️⃣ Masterful Barrel Aging:
Aged gracefully in French oak barriques and fine wooden casks, striking the perfect balance between bright red cherry fruit, dark plum, and subtle notes of tobacco, cedar, and dried herbs.
📝 TASTING NOTES:
Nose: Lifted aromas of wild red cherries, violet blossoms, dark berries, and a touch of savory Tuscan brush.
Palate: Medium-bodied, sleek, and finely structured. Bursting with fresh cherry, juicy red plum, and delicate spice, leading into a long, silky finish.
Food Pairing: Perfect alongside grilled steaks, roasted lamb, wild mushroom pasta, or aged Parmigiano.
