Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself in the heart of Tuscany, where the sun caresses the hills and time seems suspended. This Chianti Classico Riserva from the Lilliano estate, 2020 vintage, is an invitation to that sensory journey, an authentic expression of an exceptional terroir.
It is in the heart of the historic Chianti Classico zone that the Lilliano estate cultivates its Sangiovese. The soils, rich in galestro and alberese, those typical schists and limestones, are the secret of the aromatic concentration of these grapes. The estate follows a winemaking tradition in which the rigorous selection of the best clusters is paramount to crafting a wine of such depth.
This wine, made exclusively from Sangiovese, reflects careful winemaking: fermentation in steel tanks followed by extended maceration. It then benefited from aging of at least 24 months, partly in oak barrels, giving it that complexity and ability to evolve. In your glass, it displays an intense ruby red color, promising to develop garnet hues over time. On the nose, you will discover a rich and persistent bouquet, dominated by notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, interwoven with spicy nuances. A touch of leather and tobacco, a legacy of its time in oak barrels, completes this olfactory picture. On the palate, it reveals itself as robust yet harmonious, with a balanced tannic structure that ensures great longevity.
To fully appreciate this Chianti Classico Riserva, I recommend pairing it with dishes that celebrate the richness of Tuscan cuisine. It will be the ideal companion to red meats, game, or aged cheeses. Picture it alongside a bistecca alla fiorentina, where its balanced structure will enhance the flavors of the meat. Don't hesitate to open it a few hours before serving, at a temperature of 18-20°C, so it can express all its splendor. This wine is a true gem, an eloquent testament to Italian winemaking culture, promising you a rich and memorable tasting experience.
