Cosmus - Chianti Riserva - 2017
Piandaccoli - Tuscany
Named after Cosimo I dei Medici, Cosmus is a Chianti Riserva DOCG reflecting the heritage of Tuscany. From vines near unique geological formations, this wine reveals aromas of cherry, black pepper, and nutmeg, with delicate boisé notes. It boasts a strong structure, elegant tannins, and notable persistence. Ruby red with hints of violet, red and black fruits, bay leaf, and saffron, it pairs perfectly with red and white meats, aged cheeses, and salumi, especially with bistecca alla Fiorentina.
