The Straw flask (Fiasco) was born in Tuscany in 1300 to protect the glass from breakage during transportation and keep the wine temperature stable. It was immediately a big success in sales, and the straw flask became the traditional bottle always used in home consumption. The Fiasco still maintains its big popularity today and makes Chianti wine be recognized everywhere in the world.
Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"Ruby red colour with purple reflections. The bouquet is of fresh fruit, blackcurrant and cherry and subtle spice. To the palate it is young and nippy, fruity and vinous.
Grapes grown in hill soil, loose and deep, rich in marine fossils and rock fragments. Marl and sandstone, comprising clay and sand schists. Alternated with vineyards located in areas with a higher clay content and an alkaline pH."
