The 2016 Chianti Colli Fiorentini Darno is another gorgeous wine from Tenuta San Vito. Fresh, nuanced and translucent, the Darno is a very pretty, refined Chianti from the Colli Fiorentini. Sweet red cherry, wild flowers and mint are some of the many nuances that develop with time. The Darno is Sangiovese with a touch of Colorino, fermented and aged in cement. It is one of the true sleepers in this vintage. Don't miss it.
