Frescobaldi Castiglioni Chianti DOCG 750ml

Lively, soft and enveloping. It has hints of cherry, blackcurrant, and raspberry. The finish is persistent and long, with a fruity aftertaste.

Chianti Castiglioni is an intensely fruity wine. It has a bright ruby-red colour with tinges of purple. The bouquet is rich with aromas of cherry, blackberry and wild strawberry followed by elegant Mediterranean scents. On the palate, its soft, elegant and vibrant taste is immediately apparent. The finish is intensely and pleasantly aromatic.

Frescobaldi embodies the essence of Tuscany, its extraordinary vocation for viticulture and the diversity of its territories. Frescobaldi’s uniqueness stems precisely from the representation of this diversity, from its estates and from wines which express a kaleidoscope of aromas and sensations, springing from the characteristics of each individual terroir. Behind every Frescobaldi wine lies the passion of our agronomists and oenologists, who know our vineyards and terroirs down to the finest detail. A commitment to viticulture and to agriculture in general has always been a prominent hallmark of the Frescobaldi family, who have been producing wine in Tuscany for seven hundred years, beginning in the early 1300s.

Aged in stainless steel; 6 months in vats and 1 month in the bottle.

Tasting Note

This is a modern style of Chianti aged in French oak with a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. Ripe, dark berried fruit like cherry, blackcurrant and damson mingle with bluebell and violet aromas. Full-bodied with well integrated tannins.
