Sensory Description
Querciagrande presents a rich crimson red hue, enticing the senses with a bouquet of black cherry, delicate spice, and notes of black tea and balsamic.

The subtle integration of oak enhances the wine’s complexity, perfectly complementing its vibrant fruit profile.
Producer’s Background
Podere Capaccia is steeped in Chianti Classico history and renowned for its commitment to quality. Since acquiring the estate in 2010, Herman De Bode has brought new life to the vineyards and cellar, blending state-of-the-art techniques with respect for tradition.

Serving Suggestions
