Buondonno Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2022

A Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG from Buondonno, produced only in the most deserving vintages. It is made from selected Sangiovese grapes from vineyards south of Casavecchia, from the small Sicelle vineyard. It matures in Slavonian oak casks and 500-litre French oak (Allier) casks, then completes ageing with a long rest in bottle. It is intense ruby red. The nose shows red berry fruit, cinnamon, leather and tobacco. On the palate it is well balanced, powerful and well structured, warm, with powerful and balanced tannins. The finish is long and persistent. It suits grilled red meat.
