The Chianti Classico Riserva – Castelli del Castelgreve represents one of the most noble and authentic expressions of Tuscan winemaking tradition. Produced in the heart of Chianti Classico, this wine is made from selected Sangiovese grapes grown on sun-exposed hills with soils rich in galestro and alberese. The “Riserva” label indicates a longer aging period compared to the base Chianti Classico, with a minimum of 24 months, partly in oak barrels. This process develops a wine with greater complexity, structure, and elegance. The Castelli del Castelgreve winery combines generations of winemaking experience with modern techniques, maintaining a strong connection to the territory and the culture of fine drinking. The result is a Chianti Classico Riserva that deeply expresses the character of the denomination: austere yet harmonious, refined, and capable of great aging. It pairs perfectly with structured dishes and moments of sharing.
