CHIANTI RISERVA DOCG 2010<\/h1>\n

Only a small portion of the entire production of Chianti is allocated to Riserva. The best grapes are selected during the harvest to be aged in oak barrels, which enrich the taste of the wine by giving their aroma and accelerating the evolutionary processes.<\/p>\n

The colour is dark red tending to garnet red; the fragrance recalls spices and berries, with notes of ripe fruit, cinnamon and vanilla. Its flavour is rich, with silky tannins.<\/p>\n

It is a perfect accompaniment to roasts, grilled meats, game and aged cheese.<\/p>\n
