Castellare di Castellina Chianti Classico 2023 0,375l

Chianti Classico from Castellare di Castellina is a benchmark wine for the appellation, made mainly from Sangiovese with a small share of Canaiolo. After fermentation in stainless steel it ages in used barriques and then in bottle. In the glass it shows bright ruby colour with purple highlights. The nose combines sour cherry, red plum and violets with dried herbs and a touch of tobacco. On the palate it is medium‑bodied, juicy and precise, supported by lively acidity and fine tannins. The dry, elegantly spicy finish makes it a versatile partner for pasta with ragù, grilled meats, wood‑fired pizza or mature hard cheeses.

Ageing for 14 months in French barriques and tonneaux gives the Chianti Classico a clear structure and fine spice.
