Chianti Riserva Nipozzano is the symbol of the Tuscan winemaking tradition for Marchesi de ' Frescobaldi . A wine that comes from a skilful blend assembled by the team of the Marchesi de ' Frescobaldi winery, where, together with 90% Sangiovese, we also find small percentages of Malvasia Nera, Colorino, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes of these varieties are grown within the Chianti Rufina area, in vineyards located at a height above sea level between 250 and 500 meters, facing south-east.The terroir has an arid skeleton, composed of stones , limestone and clay. Once the grapes arrive in the cellar rooms used for vinification, they macerate for 25 days with frequent batonnage, carrying out both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. Finally, the production process ends with aging, in which the wine rests for 24 months in barrique and then, after bottling, for another 3 months directly in glass.
This wine is a dream chased for years. From Tenuta Perano, strongly desired by my whole family, we chose the Rialzi farm, which rises from the others thanks to three characteristic natural steps. A Grand Selection which, as the name implies, reminds me every day of the continuous commitment to excellence.
Antinori 's Chianti Classico "Peppoli" is a medium-bodied red wine with good intensity, aged for 9 months in large barrels. It is characterized by floral, balsamic and spicy aromas, with smooth and well integrated tannins in a soft, pleasant and very balanced sip
Dense ruby color with garnet reflections. The nose expands sensations of plum, mulberry, violet, and then unraveling on wild and licorice tones. In the mouth, warm and enveloping, it declines sumptuous softness and caressing tannins. Ideal together with the silverside with mustard and plums or on the stuffed roast in a crust.
The Chianti Classico "Badia a Passignano" is a famous and intense expression of the Chianti of the Marchesi Antinori . It is a full-bodied and complex red wine, with the unmistakable aromas of berries, cherries and sweet spices. Aged for 14 months in oak barrels
The "Castello di Brolio" represents the apex of the production of Chianti Classico DOCG of the whole range declined by the Barone Ricasoli company. It is a label where quality abounds, thanks to a very targeted selection work in the vineyard.
Intense and bright ruby red. The nose recalls dark sensations of cherries in alcohol and plum, dry leaves, wet earth, undergrowth, tobacco and balsamic hints. The taste is refined, harmonious, supported by the pseudo-caloric sensation and well supported by integrated tannins, thanks also to an acid backbone that accompanies a long persistence of cocoa and dried fruit.
The Chianti Classico "Filetta di Lamole" is a red wine of good freshness and pleasantly tannic that comes from Sangiovese grapes grown on the extraordinary Filetta vineyards at about 600 meters above sea level. Aged for 24 months in large barrels, it reveals an intense and refined profile, with a tonic, fresh and precise sip, enriched by a rich aromatic set of violets, currants, aromatic herbs, licorice and spices.
