Dievole Chianti Classico Vendemmia (2005) Tuscany


A nice, serviceable Chianti Classico from Azienda Agricola Dievole. Their Vendemmia is a blend of Sangiovese from all sixteen of Dievole's vineyards. The wine is aged for 12 months; with 80% of the wine being aged in huge 8,000 liter oak vat/casks while the remaining 20% is aged in French and Oak barriques. The wine has a fragrant black fruit nose and smooth tannins.
