Discovering Chianti Colli Fiorentini Wine

Sangiovese grapes are the backbone of Chianti Colli Fiorentini wine, making up at least 70% of the blend. These grapes have medium to high acidity with a medium body, and they are known to produce flavors of cherry, plum, and tobacco. Other grapes used in Chianti Colli Fiorentini add complexity and subtle herbal and floral notes to the wine.

For a wine to be called Chianti Colli Fiorentini, it must be made with specific regulations. Firstly, it must contain at least 70% Sangiovese grapes, which gives the wine its characteristic taste.

Lastly, the wine must be made within the boundaries of the Chianti Colli Fiorentini region.
