Description

The balance and fruity framework of a Tuscan red wine

The estate

The Ricasoli family, which traces its origins back to the 7th century, is one of the oldest Italian families. Barone Ricasoli is the oldest wine estate in Italy, following the acquisition in 1141 of Château Brolio by the Ricasoli family. Aware of the significant potential of this estate, the Ricasoli family therefore undertook major work to restructure the vineyards and modernise viticultural practices, with the ambition of producing great wines from this Brolio terroir.

The wines from this Tuscan estate were then exported internationally and recognised for their quality, particularly in 1867 when Brolio wine won the first gold medal at the Universal Exhibition in Paris. After years of research and experimentation, Bettino Ricasoli created in 1872 the "formula" for the production of Chianti, now called Chianti Classico.

The vineyard

Barone Ricasoli's Brolio Riserva 2019 is a Tuscan wine from a vineyard located at an altitude ranging from 300 to 400 meters, thus benefiting from an ideal climate for the production of top quality grapes.

Winemaking and ageing

The grapes are fermented in stainless steel vats at a regulated temperature of between 24°C and 27°C for 14 to 16 days, allowing optimum extraction of aromas and tannins. This Chianti Classico wine is aged for 18 months in new barrels and those of one wine.

Grape variety

Sangiovese (100%)
