The director,creator and winemaker of Astrale is Peppe Randazzo, an oenologist from the Sicilian town of Avola. Peppe has embarked on a long journey that has taken him across the four corners of the globe, from California to New Zealand, to the heart of Tuscany. In all of his oenological adventures, he’s always been inspired by authenticity, attention to detail, and the immense potential that lies behind every single grape.
He's bought an incredible depth of knowledge and know-how with him and it shows. This is a modern and fresh Chianti that doesn't shy away from lush, generous fruit and plenty of vivacity whithout sacrificing regional character. That's not always an easy task at this price-point but wow does it deliver. Everything you could want in this kind of wine - eminently smashable but loaded with charm.
A rather traditional blend that leans into the savoury and structural elements that the small amounts of Ciliegiolo and Canaiolo bring. A little fresh leather and fresh tobacco are spinkled over blakc plumb and ark cherry fruit with a little white pepper higtone element too. A plush and smooth palate with succulent fruit to the forte that slowly slips away to reveal those wonderful earthy savoury notes that sangiovese does so well. We think you will be coming back for a little more of this bad-boy.
