Chianti Classico DOCG Castello di Bibbione 2011 Castelli del Grevepesa

The Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Castello di Bibbione of the Castelli del Grevepesa winery was born in vineyards located in Bibbione in the municipality of San Casciano in Val di Pesa, in the extraordinary setting of the Bibbione Castle of the Marquis Rangoni Machiavelli.

It is produced with Sangiovese and Merlot grapes, harvested only by hand. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 30 ° C for 15 days. Subsequently the wine ages partly in stainless steel tanks for 12 months and partly in barriques for 18 months, followed by refinement of 3 months in bottle.

Bibbione Castle is characterized by an intense ruby red color. The nose opens with a large and deep bouquet, with intense hints of red fruits, enriched with pleasant spicy notes of vanilla. On the palate it is sapid and balanced, with persistent tannins.

Perfect to accompany red meats and game, it is ideal in combination with aged cheeses.
