Comment on noteThe wine
Let me guide you towards a gem that embodies the very spirit of Chianti Classico. This wine is an encounter with Tuscan authenticity, an invitation to explore deep flavours and an exceptional terroir.
We are here in the heart of Tuscany, on the hills of Gaiole in Chianti. It is in this iconic landscape that Riecine cultivates its Sangiovese, the region's flagship grape variety. The soil, a mix of tuff and limestone, gives these grapes a unique identity, a purity that is found in every drop. Traditional fermentation in steel tanks preserves the freshness of the fruit before 12 to 24 months of ageing.
The Chianti Classico 2022 from Riecine reveals itself with a deep red colour. On the nose, you will be charmed by intense aromas of cherry and red fruits, interwoven with floral notes of violet and soft spices. On the palate, it proves elegant and balanced. The tannins are supple, providing a velvety texture, while a savoury freshness balances the whole. With time, this wine promises to reveal more complex nuances of tobacco and jam, testifying to its fine longevity.
This Chianti Classico is an ideal companion for your meals. I particularly recommend it with grilled red meats or meats in sauce, such as a good brasato. It will also pair wonderfully with cacciagione, those game meats that recall the rustic flavours of Tuscany. And for cheese lovers, think of aged cheeses; their character will match the complexity of this wine. It is a bottle to share at a convivial dinner, where every sip tells a story, that of a terroir and a passion. Let yourself be tempted by this authentic expression of Chianti Classico.
