The Chianti Superiore 'Santa Cristina' by Antinori comes from a historic estate of the Antinori family, known for producing wines of great drinkability like this red. The winemaking involves a double processing: part of the grapes ferments at low temperature to preserve aromatic purity, while part ferments at a higher temperature to extract color, structure, and juice. On the nose, cherry, plum, and dried leaves emerge. The palate reveals a medium-bodied, balanced, and soft wine. Ideal with meat-based first courses or flavorful dishes like ribollita.
