Chiara Condello, Romagna Le Lucciole Size:6x750ml on the youthful noseA rapidly rising star on the Romagna firmament, and just over 30 years old, Chiara Condello struck out on her own when she stumbled across an old vine Sangiovese vineyard in Predappio. This first effort shows Condello's immense talent. Spontaneous fermentation in oak with 30 days of skin contact, and aged in large casks, it shows great focus and purity. The tangy, sleek red fruit palate shows sensational balance.
