Product information on "Chianti Classico" from Brancaia Winery

The Chianti Classico DOCG from Brancaia is an authentic homage to the terroir of Chianti Classico and a prime example of the elegance and drinkability of the Sangiovese grape variety. It comes from selected vineyards in Castellina in Chianti and Radda in Chianti, two of the region's most renowned zones.

In the glass, the wine presents itself in a clear, luminous ruby red. On the nose, it unfolds a fresh and inviting bouquet with ripe cherries, juicy red berries, and floral notes of violets – typical Sangiovese and typical Chianti Classico. The aroma is open, clear, and very accessible.

The Chianti Classico owes its freshness and precision to gentle vinification: After fermentation, the wine matures for 12 months, of which two-thirds are in stainless steel tanks and one-third in concrete tanks, which preserves the fruit and at the same time provides structure. A short bottle aging then ensures additional harmony.

On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with a lively acidity, fine salinity, and youthful, crunchy tannins. The fruit remains clear and juicy, the mouthfeel fresh and precise. The finish is crisp, elegant, and invigorating, with persistent cherry and floral notes. A Chianti Classico with character, drinkability, and great culinary potential.
