Chianti Classico Riserva 'Bugialla' 2020

Riserva 'Bugialla', produced only in the best years, is 100% Sangiovese selected from the best grapes from the highest vineyards on the estate. The soil is very stony and the southwest position, tucked right up against the woods, is a beautiful spot to view all of Poggerino and the surrounding vineyards looking towards the village of Radda. The wine spends about 55 days on skins in concrete followed by 18 months in Slavonian casks.  The wine shows blackberry, cherry, red currant and leather with a touch of liquorice and tobacco, the tannins sweet and persistent.
