Chianti Riserva, crafted from the ripest grapes at the end of harvest, is produced only in the finest vintages. After a three-week maceration on the skins, it matures in used oak barriques, gaining elegance with time. Intense ruby red with garnet highlights, it offers aromas of red berries, dried fruit, spice, vanilla, wood, and roasted coffee. Initially austere and vibrant, it softens into a savory, warm, and velvety wine, with gentle tannins and a subtle, lingering sweetness. Best enjoyed between six and ten years after harvest.

Harvest:

Chianti Riserva is crafted from the ripest grapes harvested at the end of the harvest season.

Vinification:

Maceration on the skins for three weeks is followed by refinement in barriques through several stages. This occasional wine gains elegance through bottle aging, reaching its peak expression between six and ten years after the harvest.

Tasting Notes:

Intense ruby red in color, with garnet hues. On the nose, an intense and persistent bouquet reveals aromatic notes of red berries, followed by hints of dried fruit, spices, vanilla, wood, and roasted coffee. On the palate, the wine initially presents itself as austere, dry, and slightly acidic, but then evolves with roundness and depth, becoming savory and warm with excellent structure and body. Although quite tannic, it maintains good balance, resulting in a soft and velvety finish. The persistent finish is accompanied by a subtle sweet aftertaste, adding to the wine's overall pleasantness.
