Tasting note
Fratelli Saraceni's 2023 Libero Chianti should lean toward sour cherry, red currant and dried rose. Chianti Sangiovese is expected to have brisk acidity and a light tannic edge, giving the fruit an energetic, savory feel rather than a soft one. Its projected peak sits from 2028 to 2033, within a drinking period through 2039. The close should be dry and bright, carrying cherry and herbal spice into a modest earthy note.
