Our Riserva is made from our best Sangiovese grapes. This medium to full-bodied wine shows the elegance and charm of this classic Tuscan grape variety and reveals a finesse that certainly does justice to this historical denomination. Aromas such as cherry, spices, leather and chocolate harmonize perfectly with each other. The Sangiovese matures in tonneaux for 16 months, while the Merlot is matured in barriques. The cuvée matures in the bottle for at least another year after bottling.

Brancaia is a charming wine estate nestled in the thick forests of Radda in Chianti with wild boar and roe deer. The organic 2022 Chianti Classico Riserva shows a savory side and lot of blackberry. The Riserva is shaped by a warm vintage, but the wine also reveals more oak detailing with nutmeg and sweet cinnamon. The wine shows extra textural weight and concentration in this vintage.

A restrained and classic wine with graphite, dark fruit, vibrant violets, smoke and incense. Joyful palate with a smooth texture, velvety tannins, a medium body, crisp acidity and an austere finish that’s well covered by the fruit. A wine intended for aging.
