Tasting Notes

At just over a decade old, this wonderful 2006 Palafreno is reaching a fine summit of classical expression. Dense, ripe plum and prune are encased in exotic spiced notes.  The texture is silken and profound with pristine, velveteen tannins and an elegance only found in wines of real pedigree.  Lingering long in the mouth, it displays leather, cigar box, game and dark cherries alongside a distinctive energy and perfume that speaks of its Tuscan heritage.  2006 Palafreno is a classy wine that comes in minute quantities direct from Querciabella’s cellar in Chianti.  Exquisite provenance for a wine of this stature doesn’t come along very often.  You won’t want to miss out.

ProducerQuerciabella

The name Querciabella is entirely appropriate to this estate in Chianti, which is surrounded by a sheltering forest of magnificent trees. Sebastiano Castiglioni is at the helm of one of the most innovative wineries in Italy, spearheading vegan and biodynamic practices in his two estates. Helped by the incredibly talented South African winemaker Manfred Ing, Querciabella are releasing not only some of the purest expressions of Chianti Classico but also venturing into Super-Tuscan territory with Camartina and Palafreno. Querciabella are also responsible for one of the most acclaimed Italian whites, Batàr, alongside a range of exciting Maremma wines.
