Castell’in Villa is one of the most important and renowned wine estates in Chianti, based in the beautiful, hilly countryside just outside Castelnuovo Berardenga. It was rated one of only 3 “1er Grand Cru Classé A” equivalent estates in Chianti by Walter Speller in his 2020 classification of Chianti’s top estates on Jancisrobinson.com.
This remarkable Chianti Classico is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes coming from the estate’s 8 vineyard sites. It is aged in large Slavonian oak casks in traditional Chianti fashion for 12 months before bottling, then released onto the market around 3 years later. It has super-impressive depth of flavour and structure for a “simple” Chianti Classico, with notes of dried cherries, spice and cigar box. It is medium bodied, fresh and elegant, yet has the ability to develop and improve over 10-20 years!
“Lustrous mid ruby with the beginning of orange tinges. Complex, minerally, savoury nose with a hint of leather. Energetic, sappy cherry fruit with polished tannins. Elegant and with a lightness of touch. Old school and totally convincing.” 17.5/20pts Jancisrobinson.com
