Why shop with us?
Castell'in Villa Chianti Classico 2020 is a pure Sangiovese expression from one of Tuscany’s most respected estates, offering a serious and finely composed take on the classic style. Built from fruit across the winery’s various vineyards, it brings together depth, precision, and a clear sense of place in a wine that reflects the long tradition of Chianti Classico.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby core with graceful garnet reflections, hinting at both freshness and structure. The nose is complex and layered, with aromas of red cherry, wild berries, dried herbs, violet, and subtle earthy and savory notes that unfold with air.
On the palate, this is a refined and focused Sangiovese with lively acidity, firm but polished tannins, and a mineral edge that gives the wine drive and length. The fruit is balanced by spice, floral lift, and a dry, savory finish. While approachable with proper aeration, it should also reward several years of bottle aging, gaining greater complexity and harmony over time.
Production
Made entirely from 100% Sangiovese, this Chianti Classico is assembled from fruit grown across Castell'in Villa’s different vineyards, bringing together a nuanced picture of the estate’s terroirs. The style suggests careful vineyard selection and traditional vinification aimed at preserving varietal purity, structure, and the character of Tuscany’s clay and limestone-rich soils.
Food & Serving
A natural partner for Tuscan and Mediterranean cuisine, this wine is excellent with grilled meats, roast poultry, wild mushroom dishes, tomato-based pastas, and aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to allow the aromas and structure to open fully.

The producer has earned an excellent reputation for wines that combine elegance, authenticity, and longevity, making it one of the benchmark names in the region.
