EXTRA 19
"Unexpected, out of the ordinary".
As part of our ongoing, obsessive pursuit of the deepest spirit of Val delle Corti’s Sangiovese grape, in certain special and important years we make a small selection of a few barrels where the Riserva matures.
This wine is left to lie pea-cefully for one year longer than the Riserva itself (for a total of 36 months).
It follows its own captivating and unusual path, and is bottled without filtration. Over the next few years the “Extra” selection will increasingly be made from our new cru vineyard, La Malpensata. Our goal is not to create a deliberately powerful, robust, opulent wine. Quite the opposite. We aim to bottle the quintessence of the Sangiovese grape grown in our vineyards, its highest possi-ble expression of elegance, smoothness and rich body.

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.

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.
