Description

Chianti Classico DOCG Castello di Meleto Riserva 2020

Produced in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, Castello di Meleto Chianti Classico Riserva 2020 is an elegant expression of Tuscan winemaking tradition, crafted primarily from Sangiovese with a small proportion of Merlot. Extended ageing in oak and bottle gives the wine remarkable depth, balance, and outstanding ageing potential.

In the glass, it displays a deep ruby red colour with subtle garnet reflections. The bouquet is refined and complex, offering aromas of ripe cherry, black cherry and plum, followed by elegant notes of dried violet, Mediterranean herbs, tobacco, black pepper, liquorice, and delicate hints of balsamic spice and vanilla.

On the palate, it is full-bodied, structured and beautifully balanced, supported by vibrant acidity and silky, well-integrated tannins. The finish is long, persistent and mineral-driven, revealing lingering flavours of red berries, sweet spices and subtle cocoa nuances.

An excellent pairing for grilled red meats, game, braised dishes, roasted meats and aged cheeses. A Chianti Classico Riserva of remarkable character that perfectly combines elegance, complexity and authentic territorial expression, with excellent cellaring potential.
