Castellare Chianti Classico Sangiovese

Castellare di Castellina Chianti Classico - Chianti Classico DOCG, Tuscany, Italy

Producer's Notes: 

Bright ruby red color with purple highlights. Thanks to the harmony of the tannins, combined with the delicate complexity of aromas and the final note of sweetness, the wine is characterised by an excellent balance in the mouth.

What we say:

A beautifully balanced Chianti Classico from one of the historic estates in the heart of Tuscany’s rolling hills. This wine opens with classic aromas of sour cherry, red plum and wild strawberry, laced with hints of dried herbs, violet and a touch of spice. On the palate it’s medium-bodied and elegant, with bright acidity, fine tannins and a savoury mineral thread that keeps the fruit focused and fresh. Smooth and food-friendly, it shows both the bright fruit and the earthy nuance that define Chianti Classico’s best expressions.
