Il Tesoro Chianti

Il Tesoro Chianti 2005

Benchmark Chianti - a ripe, cherry-filled mouthful and 500 years of Tuscan expertise!

You can't go wrong with Chianti - particularly when it's as good as this juicy gem from the historic Baroncini family. An excellent, supple wine crafted from grapes picked from the beautiful vineyards in the province of Sienna and Florence.

The Baroncini family started producing wine in 1489 and the estate has remained in the family, passsed down through generations. Today the estate is run by Stefano and Bruna.

Deep red with a cherry nose, an intense but delicate palate, packed with rounded cherry and hints of red bramble fruit. Medium bodied with a nice length - perfect for drinking with food ... and entertaining friends over long, informal suppers!

Customer Reviews for Il Tesoro Chianti

Mr P Panikker,
"Velvety smooth, lovely nose, good length, balanced flavours (not as vibrant flavours as some chiantis) A lovely evening dinner red and good enough to sip on a mellow friday night. Was very popular with xmas guests."
