Ricasoli

Ricasoli, one of the oldest wineries in the world located in Gaiole, Tuscany, is famous for its traditional Chianti wines. This special wine is made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes grown on a south-facing slope at altitudes between 250 and 450 meters. Castello di Brolio Gran Selezione offers a full and complex taste experience with an intense aroma of small red berries, violets and spices. The taste is precise and structured with a freshness that balances the tannins and acidity, giving the wine a long life and exciting aging potential.

Reviews:

- Falstaff: "Brilliant, medium ruby ​​red with garnet red hues. Intense aroma of juicy cherries, orange peel, tobacco leaves and light spices such as cinnamon and vanilla. Very elegant on the palate with beautiful fruit notes and well-integrated tannins as well as an exciting and persistent finish."
- Jancis Robinson: "Deep crimson color. Quite complex nose. Races with flavor notes of tea leaves and good freshness. Good bite. A truly refined Chianti Classico."
- Wine Spectator: "A lively red wine with typical Sangiovese notes of iron, red chalk and tobacco that meld with a core of cherry and raspberry. Becomes smoother and more focused towards the end, where the fruit, minerals and spicy elements come together."
- Wine Enthusiast: "Autumn aromas of spices and the taste of freshly brewed coffee are balanced by a sweet cherry-vanilla biscuit and a peppery note. Cherries refresh the palate, with spice supported by herbal and stony undertones. Fresh acidity plays around firm tannins."
