Depth and Elegance of wines costing twice the price!
Ciliegiolo is a variety of red wine grape from Italy, named after the Italian for "cherry". In the past it has been a component of traditional blends such as Chianti, but with interest revived in recent years it has become its own single bottling.
Ciliegiolo is clonally related to Sangiovese but there is discussion as to whether it’s the parent of or the offspring of Chianti’s main grape.
Some legend claims that Ciliegiolo came to Italy from Spain, but the genetic link between Ciliegiolo and Sangiovese is practically impossible to reconcile with a Spanish origin.

James Suckling
"Clean aromas of ripe cherries and berries follow through to a medium- to full-bodied palate with
grainy tannins and a more savory finish. From organically grown grapes."
Our Thoughts on this wine.....
Just north of San Gimignano, still family run (fourth generation) this wine shows deep ruby red color, with a purple rim given by the richness in the antioxidants. The smell is very intense, with vinous, cherry and rose aromas. The taste is balanced between the coco, cherry, plum jam and smooth components, with an excellent, med-full-bodied structure and a long finish.
