Crafted from Sangiovese grown on limestone-rich soils, it combines elegance, intensity, and a distinctly mineral character that reflects the slopes around Castello di Brolio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows the poised depth typical of great Sangiovese, with a vibrant ruby core and a polished, luminous appearance. The nose opens with delicate red and dark berry fruit, then moves into crushed oyster shell, dark spice, and subtle smoky, ember-like notes.\n\nThe palate is firm, high-toned, and long, with precise acidity, structured tannins, and a mineral spine that gives the wine real drive. While already expressive, it has the concentration and balance to age gracefully for several years, developing greater savouriness and complexity over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine comes from Sangiovese vineyards rooted in clay-limestone soils with high calcium carbonate content and low organic matter, conditions that naturally limit vigour and encourage concentration. The terroir contributes both fragrance and a marked mineral edge, while careful harvesting and classic vinification help preserve the grape’s purity and structural precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIdeal with bistecca alla fiorentina, grilled lamb, game birds, mushroom risotto, or aged Pecorino Toscano. Serve at 16–18°C, and decant for about 30–60 minutes if enjoyed young to allow the aromatics and structure to open fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBarone Ricasoli is one of Tuscany’s landmark wine estates and one of the oldest wine families in Italy, with a history closely tied to the development of Chianti Classico.
