2019 CHIANTI CLASSICO RISERVA D.O.C.G

Captivating and complex, this Italian red has a bold ruby red color as it swirls in the glass. Aromas of eucalyptus, ripe red cherry, and raisins develop into subtle balsamic notes and hints of licorice. A rich structure with grippy tannins leads to a pleasantly persistent finish.

The grapes were sourced from the D.O.C.G. Chianti Classico area, specifically the region between Florence and Siena. Characterized by shallow clay soils, high elevation and a temperate climate, these vineyards allow the grapes to ripen to their full potential. Harvested in mid-October, the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed before fermentation in stainless steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine is then matured in a combination of stainless steel and oak to enrich its bouquet and soften its character. Once the wine is stabilized, filtered and refined, it is then bottled. The total aging period including three months in bottle is twenty-four months which adheres to regulatory guidelines.
