Name: Chianti Classico DOCG Riserva FANATICO
Estate: The Villa Trasqua Estate can be found in the heart of Tuscany, within the Chianti Classico production area with its famous symbol of the Black Rooster, just paces from the majestic Castle of Monteriggioni. The Estate’s 56ha of vineyards are found on the Trasqua plain, where its Sangiovese and other traditional and international grape varietals are constantly blessed by sunshine and caressed by the winds until they are harvested by hand and transformed into traditional and innovative, full-bodied wines with the aiding knowledge and experience of Villa Trasqua’s staff and winemaker Franco Bernabei.
Region: Tuscany / Italy
Grape: Sangiovese
Taste:
Fermentation in 50HL oak barrels followed by 24 months of aging in large Slavonian oak and small French oak (barrique) barrels and 3 months of bottle refinement. Deep red with slight garnet shades, ripe fruit aromas and delicate spicy notes. Intense and smooth on the palate, a rounded, full-bodied wine with gentle tannins and a long, dry finish that pairs particularly well with grilled or braised red meats and game.
