Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG Castellare di Castellina 2018

With the Chianti Classico Riserva, the historic Castellare di Castellina winery achieves excellence in the production of one of the most famous wines in Italy. We are in the heart of Chianti, in the province of Siena, where the vineyards extend over the gentle hills surrounded by tidy olive groves, golden wheat fields and luxuriant woods. The mild climate, the constant sunshine, the terroir made up of shale and marl rich in limestone, make Chianti the area with a high wine vocation that the whole world envies us. The winegrowers and master oenologists of the cellar cultivate exclusively autochthonous vines, attentive only to the high quality of the production and never to the yield of the vineyards. This is how the Sangiovese and Canaiolo vines that make up the Chianti Classico Riserva blend acquire the character and minerality for which this wine is rightly appreciated. Only the best grapes are destined for the long aging in barrique necessary to make the "Riserva". Aromatic, balanced and elegant, it is a sumptuous wine, capable of fully expressing the richness of its precious territory of origin.
