Castell'in Villa 2016 Chianti Classico 750ml
The main objective at Castell’in Villa is to produce high quality wines from low yielding vineyards.
The wines are of course Chianti Classico and Chianti Classico Riserva. In addition to these two other reds are made, the Santacroce and the Poggio delle Rose. A very small amount of the traditional Vin Santo is also produced as well as a Grappa from the residue of the estates vendemmia
Chianti Classico
The Castell’in Villa Chianti Classico is composed of 100% Sangiovese grapes. It is a complex and serious blend of our different vineyards. The wine is aged in traditional Chianti Classico casks for about 12 months.
The Castell’in Villa Chianti Classico captures the fruit of the Sangiovese grapes and the earthy, spicy and slightly wild traces of the soil in a beautiful blend. It is an unusually concentrated Chianti Classico, that will invariably benefit from age.
