Chianti Colli Senesi Riserva DOCG 2015 Castello di Farnetella

The Chianti Colli Senesi Riserva of Castello di Farnetella was born in vineyards located in the municipality of Sinalunga, in Farnetella, in the heart of the Chianti DOCG sub-area, Colli Senesi.

It is mainly produced with Sangiovese grapes and with Cabernet and Merlot grapes, harvested and selected by hand within the first two weeks of October. Fermentation takes place, with maceration, in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 28-30 ° C for 12-15 days. Subsequently the wine ages for 12-16 months in oak barrels and barriques and then for another 4-6 months in the bottle before being put on the market.

The Chianti Colli Senesi Riserva of Castello di Farnetella has an intense ruby red color, with light purple reflections. The nose opens with strong aromas of ripe blackberry and blueberry, enriched with hints of anise and Mediterranean scrub. In the mouth it is fresh and structured, with soft tannins and a long and enveloping finish accompanied by notes of black cherry and vanilla.

Perfect to accompany mushrooms and game, this wine is ideal in combination with red meats and medium-aged cheeses.
