Castell'in Villa 2019 Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG

A Chianti Classico Riserva from Castell'in Villa, made from Sangiovese grown in vineyards with an average age of 15 to 25 years at 250 to 320 metres above sea level. Alcoholic fermentation lasts 12 to 14 days with indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled steel tanks, followed by 24 to 36 months in large Slavonian oak casks and 12 months in bottle before release. The wine has good ageing potential and pairs well with red meats such as beef tagliata, Florentine steak and mixed grilled meats, as well as game dishes. It shows an intense ruby red colour, with cherry, small red fruit and elegant spicy aromas, a structured, full-bodied palate with good concentration, firm tannins and refreshing acidity, and a long, persistent finish.
