Reference: VDCCCR19
The Riserva is only made in exceptionally good years with the best Sangiovese selected from the estate’s oldest vineyards so in this sense we might well describe the Riserva as our “Grand Cru”. Like our other wines, the Riserva has great ageing potential, improving considerably over the years to express the quintessential features of Chianti-grown Sangiovese: minerality, fresh fruit and outstanding elegance.

Chianti Classico is produced from Sangiovese and Canaiolo grapes.
It is the wine that best represents the specific Raddese territory, summing up the main characteristics of a Chianti Classico: fresh and harmonious fruit on the nose, bright ruby red colour, good concentration, good acidity but above all elegance and extraordinary enjoyability.
Chianti Sangiovese at its best. With years in the bottle, it refines further.
A unique wine, created by blending the best selections of Sangiovese from 24 wineries, in equal parts, resulting in a wine of excellence: balanced and representative of the territory.
