Tenuta Vicchiomaggio Chianti Classico Riserva 2019, 750 ml

Alcohol content: 14.5%

Ruby red, brick red undertones. Well-developed on the nose with ripe fruit and sweet spices. On the palate well-rounded, soft tannins (for Sangiovese) fill the mouth, well-balanced and long, with hints of cherry, some ripe red fruits, and hints of vanilla on the finish. Very enjoyable now with plenty of future potential.

Vinyard Information: Well ventilated hill top site, heavy soil with 30% clay and abundant stone and marl, low yields of about 43 hl/ha. Altitude 240-285 mt. Single Guyot pruning with 5,000 vines/ha. Nitrogen fertilization provided by using the Broad Bean as a cover crop thus avoiding traditional animal manure.

Vinification & Maturation:
Vinification: Stainless steel vats. Skin contact (maceration) limited to about 7 days thus avoiding excessive tannin extraction as the wine will be paired with vegetable-based dishes.
Maturation: Large oak barrels of 25 – 50 hl for 18 months, followed by 4 –6 months in bottle before leaving the cellar.

Food Pairings: Vegetable and bean stew. Spicy roast of parsnips, carrots, broccoli and egg plant.
