We absolutely love this wine. Very traditional (and that’s a good thing), this has so much character and is wildly expressive. Fans of old-world wines are going to love this.
“A great example of old-school, traditional Chianti. A firm palate, full, with some extraction: chunky and sunny at the same time. Dried black fruits combine with notes of bay leaf, charcoal, spice, a touch of raspberry, and lovely woody spiciness. A good chewy finish with moderately low acidity.”-Decanter Magazine
From one of the oldest estates in Italy comes this delicious, super drinkable Chianti Classico. The wine has scents of red fruits with blueberry, cherry and plum dominating. Castelvecchi Chianti Classico shows great harmony and is an absolute joy to drink.
Sangiovese and Canaiolo in perfect harmony, a blend that represents the territory throughout its millenary history, the absolute uniqueness of a natural environment wisely transformed by the skillful hands of men and the winery secrets passed from generation to generation. The balance between fragrance and softness, between fruit and structure.
Sangiovese 88% and Canaiolo 12%
Red colour laden with pleasant purple tones. Good body, good acidity and freshness, with prevailing floral notes, hints of red rose and violet.
The scents of red fruits prevail, with mature fruit trends as the red fruit, blueberry, cherry and plum, slightly spicy.
The vineyards of the Premiata Fattoria di Castelvecchi in Chianti are a true Heritage of Italian viticulture, such as the cellars and the castle. Almost all the vines are over 50 years; the remaining come from selections made within the oldest vineyards that are patiently replicated.
