24 maand gerijpt in eiken vaten; 6 maand in fles. De Riserva is één van de mooiste wijnen van het kasteel! Een mooie concentratie en een intens robijnrode kleur. De wijn beschikt over een boeket van rode & zwarte vruchten en een toetsen van kruiden (peper, nootmuskaat en tabak), gevolgd door een lange afdronk. Heerlijk met gegrild vlees en kazen.

4 /5

Produced only in top vintages (the first was in 1924) the Riserva is one of the most representative wines of the winery and best expresses the varietal characteristics of Sangiovese. It's an intense ruby colour with aromas of ripe red fruits, followed by hints of tobacco, black pepper and sweet wood. The palate is savoury with morello cherry, licorice and clove with tannins that blend in well with the fruity component. Long lasting finish and, like the Gran Selezione, it can stand up to full flavoured dishes such as grilled meats, roasts and ripe cheese.

Burgundy colour. Aromas of ripe fruit.Reminded me of burned wood and it was a pleasant taste.
Great wine menu that would go well with a good meat.
To drink with friends.

We had it with a deer stew. I tasted it with wine enthusiasts.
The Castello di Verrazzano Chianti Classico Riserva offers wonderful tinges. Aromas of raisins. This Chianti Classico has a very good acidity.
