Profile
Itâs made in a traditional style of Chianti Classico - so expect a medium-bodied, fruit-driven wine with a firm structure and great length. According to the producer: âThe Italian word Retromarcia means more to us than its literal translation âto back upâ or âto reverseâ, it has been our aim to produce intensely typical and expressive wines from Tuscanyâs historic zone â Chianti Classico, using only traditional grapes. With the name Retromarcia, we are emphasizing a return to the natural elegance and charm of Sangiovese.â
Full price $50.00 from the producer.

Ah...Tuscany. The home of rolling hills, extra virgin olive oil, Steak Florentine and, of course, Chianti. Everything here is about the earth, and it shows through in the produce. Earthy, vinous, purely rustic and unadulterated. Some of our most enjoyable experiences have come from here. They don't generally come cheap, but they're well worth it.
