Astrale Chianti 2024

Chianti is seeing something of a revival in popularity around the world and the 2024 vintage will do nothing to hurt that. Nor will wines that provide such good value as this. Ruby red in colour, this is a savoury style with notes of mushrooms, animal flesh, leaf litter, charcuterie and warm earth. There are hints similar to the spice and sweetness one encounters with a freshly opened tin of beetroot. A midweight style with bright acidity and juicy flavours, it is of medium length and should drink well for the next four to five years.
