Description

First created in 1977, I Sodi di San Niccolò is Castellare di Castellina’s historic Super Tuscan, made from Sangiovese and Malvasia Nera. The 2022 vintage combines the structure of hillside-grown fruit with an elegant, concentrated style shaped by extended barrel and bottle ageing.

Tasting Notes
It shows an intense ruby-red colour with garnet highlights. The expressive nose brings together ripe red fruit and jam-like notes with spice, vanilla and liquorice.

Production
The grapes come from four hillside plots around Castellina in Chianti, at approximately 400 metres above sea level. Their limestone-rich soils contribute freshness and firm structure. Harvest takes place in mid-October, followed by fermentation in stainless steel. The wine then matures for 30 months in partly new barrels and a further 12 months in bottle, developing complexity and the structure to age gracefully for years.

Food & Serving
Pair it with roasts, grilled or braised red meat, and mature cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C. Decant for about an hour before serving to let the aromas open, particularly if enjoying the wine young.

Producer
Castellare di Castellina is based in the heart of Chianti Classico, near the village of Castellina in Chianti. I Sodi di San Niccolò, named for the region’s steep, difficult-to-work soils and a nearby 14th-century church, is the estate’s historic flagship wine. First made in 1977, it has become a notable expression of the producer’s Tuscan vineyards.
