Thanks for considering the Frescobaldi Castiglioni Chianti DOCG 2020. This wine is a true reflection of the local climate and the family-owned winery's commitment to quality.
The Frescobaldi family has been producing wine for over 700 years, and their Castiglioni Chianti is a testament to their heritage and expertise. The winery is located in the heart of Tuscany, where the Sangiovese grape thrives.
The traditional winemaking process involves hand-harvesting the grapes and fermenting them in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for 12 months, giving it a smooth texture and fine structure.
When you pour a glass of Castiglioni Chianti, you'll notice its intense, purple-rimmed ruby-red color. The nose is filled with wild red fruit aromas, such as blackberry, redcurrant, raspberry, and strawberry. On the palate, you'll experience a warm, velvety mouthfeel with well-integrated tannins. The wine's bright acidity contributes to its impressive balance, and the fruit flavors return on a long, harmonious finish.
This wine pairs perfectly with classic Italian dishes, such as pasta with tomato sauce, pizza, and grilled meats. It's also a great match for aged cheeses and charcuterie boards.
