Chianti Classico Riserva 2021

A selection of the best Sangiovese from the two estates, Brancaia and Poppi, blended with 20% Merlot. Matured in barriques (half new) for 16 months, followed by 6 months in the bottle. Loaded with perfumed juicy fruit, this is a rich and ripe style of Chianti that will benefit from some time in a decanter to allow the dark berry fruit to shine through the French oak polish.
