CASTELL'IN Villa Chianti Classico Riserva
| Vintage: | 2017 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Organically Farmed. 100% Sangiovese. This is a very traditional producer in Castelnuovo Berardenga. "100% Sangiovese from the best vineyards on the property. The wine is fermented in stainless steel using indigenous yeasts, kept on the skins for 20-30 days, and aged in large oval barrels ('botti') for five years, depending on the vintage. The critic Antonio Galloni describes Castell'in Villa's wines as some of the most age-worthy in Italy, and although this Riserva drinks well at 5 years of age, it will easily go 20 or more. Classic aromas of sour cherry, fine leather, sandalwood and cedar, fresh acidity, attractive fine tannins, and a long, complex palate impression. Outstanding Sangiovese, and one of the best wines in the Chianti Classico appellation. This and grilled rib-eye steak is heaven on earth." - Oliver Mccrum. Unfiltered & unfined. |
