Details and technical informations about Winery Figli d'Italia's Leone d'Oro Chianti Colli Senesi.
Discover the grape variety: Xinomavro
Structured, taut reds with a clear ruby robe that quickly evolves towards tawny, firm tannins and sharp high acidity (hence its name, xino-mavro = acid-black), with aromas of red cherry, sun-dried tomato, black olive, dried herbs, spice, leather and balsamic notes. Fine ageing potential, often compared to Nebbiolo. Absolute star of Naoussa PDO in Greek Macedonia, also Amyndeo PDO. Very late-ripening autochthonous Greek variety.

The wine region of Chianti Colli Senesi
Largest sub-zone of Chianti DOCG (Sienese hills): Sangiovese signature red king (>=75%) — intense ruby with signature notes of cherry, ripe red fruits, violet, light spice and herbal hint, full-bodied yet balanced palate with fine, persistent tannins, fruitier and more digestible style than Chianti Classico, supple tannins from warm climate on clay-sandy soils. DOCG, 6 months oak and 6 months bottle aging, 5-10 years cellaring.
The wine region of Tuscany
Kingdom of Sangiovese: upright reds with cherry, plum, dried herbs and leather, lively acidity and firm tannins. Fleshy, food-friendly Chianti Classico DOCG, deep long-ageing Brunello di Montalcino (spice, tobacco, ripe black fruit), elegant Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. On the coast, Bolgheri crafts the opulent Cabernet- and Merlot-based 'Super Tuscans'. Some fresh white Vernaccia.
The word of the wine: Flowable
A supple, easy-drinking wine with little consistency in the mouth.
