Pinea Tinto 2019 (750 ml) Chianti Superiore

Pinea Tinto 2019 (750 ml) Chianti SuperioreOur flagship PINEA is the result of passionate viticulture, meticulous grape selection and attention to every detail in its wine making process. PINEA possesses the characteristics of all great wines: 1) Character and Sense of Place, achieved partly from careful grape selection sourced from estate vineyards with vines ranging from 20 to 90+ years of age, that benefit from the perfect stress of the elements that the higher altitudes of Ribera provides.
