Ricasoli 1141 Chianti Classico Riserva Brolio 2023

Ricasoli 1141 Chianti Classico Riserva Brolio 2023 is a refined expression of Sangiovese from one of Tuscany’s most historic estates. Sourced from the legendary Brolio property, it combines the energy and freshness of Chianti Classico with the depth and structure expected of a Riserva.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine typically shows a bright ruby core with a vibrant, youthful edge. The nose is classic and inviting, offering aromas of red cherry, wild berry, violet, dried herbs, and subtle hints of spice and toasted oak. On the palate, it is elegant and focused, with lively acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a savoury, mineral-driven finish. The Sangiovese character gives it tension and lift, while the Riserva style adds extra complexity and persistence. It should develop nicely over the next several years, gaining more earthy and tertiary nuance with bottle age.

Production
Made from Sangiovese grown in the Chianti Classico zone of Tuscany, this wine reflects the limestone-rich, hilly terrain around Brolio, where warm days and cool nights help preserve freshness and aromatic precision. The grapes are harvested with care to ensure balance and optimal ripeness, followed by vinification designed to highlight the grape’s natural vibrancy and structure, with ageing that adds finesse and depth to the final wine.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for Tuscan cuisine, including roasted meats, grilled lamb, wild boar, pappardelle with ragù, and aged Pecorino. Serve at around 16–18°C. Decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended, especially if enjoying it young, to allow the aromatics and texture to open fully.

Producer
Ricasoli 1141 is one of the oldest wine-producing names in Italy, with roots going back centuries at Castello di Brolio in the heart of Chianti Classico. The estate is closely tied to the history and development of the region, and it has long been recognized for producing benchmark Sangiovese wines that combine tradition, precision, and a strong sense of place.
