It is not surprising to discover that this Chianti Riserva DOCG Tenuta di Campriano produced from Buccia Nera has been awarded several times by international wine critics. After all, it is clear that it is a great product from the first taste. It could be defined as pure Sangiovese, given that in the blending this grape weighs for about 85%. But in this case, to add nobility to the blend, a part of Merlot and one part of Cabernet Sauvignon are added, improving vines par excellence. The vinification of the grapes takes place in three different moments, always in steel at a controlled temperature. Spontaneous alcoholic and malolactic fermentation and 2-year aging in 30-hectolitre oak barrels followed by a further year in the bottle. The result is a complex and structured red. The color is impenetrable, ruby red with garnet reflections. The nose opens with notes of cherry in alcohol and blackberry, to then offer spicy sensations of chocolate, licorice and tobacco. In the mouth it is full, voluminous, soft at the entrance, with nice ripe tannins that leave the mouth dry and clean.
