Saracosa 2019
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.
Flavor Profile
Like all top Chianti producers, the Barbanera family also crafts a small amount of ‘Super Tuscan,’ a mix of Italy’s native grape varieties and international stars.
The family’s flagship Vecciano cuvée has been hailed by top Italian critic Luca Maroni as “one of the all-time great Super Tuscan reds.” Saracosa is an exclusive (far more affordable) release that marries Sangiovese and Merlot for a similarly rich, smooth style plus luscious dark berry and vanilla flavors.
Backed by an already-impressive award pedigree (and supported by the stellar 2019 vintage), the new edition was rated 95 points by critic Luca Maroni.
Wondering what to serve with this delicious selection? You could take a cue from winemaker Sofia Barbanera and the rest of the family: they like to enjoy Saracosa with the local salami or wild boar ragù. For something a little more familiar, a rich spaghetti bolognese will be tasty.
Whatever you choose, Saracosa is sure to impress—secure your share now.
