Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself in the heart of Tuscany, where history blends with the vine. This Chianti DOCG 2023 from the Certosa di Belriguardo is an invitation to a sensory journey, an authentic expression of an exceptional terroir that I had the chance to discover.
The Certosa di Belriguardo, nestled in the famous Chianti wine region, embodies passion and tradition. This estate, whose name evokes the beauty of the place, cultivates its vines on hills that enjoy ideal sunshine and rich soil, conducive to the flourishing of Sangiovese. It is here, in the heart of this prestigious appellation, that this wine is born. It is mainly made from 75% Sangiovese, the king grape variety of Tuscany, complemented by 25% Merlot and Cabernet, a blend that gives it complexity and balance.
At first glance, you will be seduced by its ruby red color, lively and deep, a reflection of its youth and vitality. On the nose, this Chianti DOCG Mama unfolds a captivating aromatic bouquet: notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, blend harmoniously with spicy touches and light floral nuances. On the palate, it reveals a balanced structure, silky tannins and a vibrant freshness, making it a wine that is both elegant and versatile. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, with maceration on the skins, followed by a minimum aging of three months in the bottle to perfect its balance.
This Chianti DOCG Mama is the ideal companion for your meals. I particularly recommend it with dishes from the Italian tradition, such as roasted red meats or pasta accompanied by ragù. It also pairs wonderfully with aged cheeses, highlighting their character. Imagine yourself tasting it during a dinner with friends, sharing authentic flavors of Tuscany, or simply at the end of the day, for a moment of pure relaxation. It embodies the authentic character of Chianti and the passion of the Certosa di Belriguardo for quality, a gem that I am delighted to introduce to you.
