Lupinella Chianti 2021

This charming red wine originates from the Chianti DOCG in the Tuscany region of Italy. The La Lupinella estate was founded in 1977 by Vittoriano Bitossi, an heir to a family renowned for ceramic production since the 16th century. The winery's philosophy is rooted in a deep respect for the environment and the expression of native grape varieties, with a specific focus on the unique clay loam soils that serve as the foundation for both their vines and their historic ceramics.

On the palate, the wine is medium bodied and supple yet well structured, showcasing a fresh and linear character with sleek tannins and vibrant acidity. It is characterized by its balance of traditional and modern winemaking, resulting in a refreshing and 'terroir-transparent' take on the varietal.
