Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG - Castello - Fattoria di Lamole 2015

The Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG produced by Fattoria di Lamole represents a sublime expression of the unique terroir of Lamole, located in the heart of the Chianti Classico area in Tuscany. This illustrious wine is crafted following the canonical standards of the Riserva designation, which mandates a minimum aging of two years in wood followed by three months of refinement in the bottle.

The Chianti Classico Riserva from Lamole is a wine of profound complexity, primarily made from Sangiovese grapes that are meticulously selected from vineyards situated at a considerable altitude. This favorable position provides an ideal microclimate for a slowly balanced maturation of the grapes, which is reflected in the glass with an elegant structure and well-defined tannins.

Visually, the Chianti Classico Riserva displays an intense ruby red color with garnet reflections that deepen with aging. On the nose, it is distinguished by an aromatic bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and blueberry, which blend with seductive notes of vanilla, tobacco, and leather, provided by the long stay in oak barrels. On the palate, the wine is rich and substantial, with a harmonious balance between lively acidity and a tense tannic structure that promises great aging potential.

Ideal for pairing with hearty dishes such as roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses, this Chianti Classico Riserva beckons to be tasted on special occasions where the cuisine matches its stature. Each sip tells the story of Lamole, an area renowned for its exceptional wines, and underscores the skill with which Fattoria di Lamole continues to interpret its precious terroir.
