Tasting notes

The Cerchiaia Riserva DOCG comes from Sangiovese and Colorino grapes, typical Tuscan varieties and historically used to produce the Chianti Riserva. The vinification begins with the soft crushing phase of the grapes and follows with a fermentation with a maceration of at least 10 days. The long aging process in Slavonia oak barrels allows to obtain a wine with an intense ruby red color, which can show garnet reflections over the years. The nose reveals a rich bouquet, with notes of red and ripe black fruit reminiscent of marasca cherry, blackberry, black cherry. A slight spicy hint of nutmeg and licorice preludes to a delicately toasted finish, typical of the wines aged in wood. Well balanced in the mouth, with soft and elegant tannins and a long and persistent finish.
