Riecine Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2022

A wine that beautifully highlights the significance of the Sangiovese grape while preserving its graceful elegance.

This wine has been a staple since 1975, and its style has remained unchanged through the years. The aromatic refinement of the grape is sublimely accompanied—but never overwhelmed—by the finest oak.

Careful and prolonged vinification ensures the highest quality!
Only the best grapes are used for the Riserva. After meticulous selection in the vineyard and on the vibrating sorting table, the grapes ferment in cement. The must is kept at a controlled temperature, partly with the help of dry ice, for the first four to five days before spontaneous fermentation begins. After fermentation, the must, including skins, is left for an additional ten days before being transferred to a large Grenier oak barrel.
Here, Chianti Classico Riserva spends 22 months before being returned to the cement tank for stabilization and natural clarification. After the stabilization period, the wine is bottled and aged for an additional three months before being released.
