Details

In Castiglioni, the 2023 vintage kicked off with a promising budding that began in early April. The spring days were cool and rainy and favoured a lush development of the shoots and subsequently the grape clusters. During the summer period, the temperatures became warmer and result in a beautiful veraison and a good concentration of nutrients in the grapes. The absence of rain during the harvest period led to a harvest with healthy, perfectly ripened grapes. Benefiting from favourable soil and climatic conditions, Chianti Castiglioni reflects the characteristics of the terroir it represents and is a soft, pleasantly fruity wine with a strong, well-defined character.

A delicious, juicy and well-rounded Chianti with aromas of strawberries, red currants and some forest berries. Medium-bodied with soft tannins. Mellow and fruit-driven with a satisfying finish.
