Tenuta Nozzole Chianti Classico 2023

Tenuta Nozzole Chianti Classico 2023 is a refined Tuscan red made exclusively from Sangiovese and classified Chianti Classico DOCG. Produced at the historic Tenuta di Nozzole estate in the heart of the appellation, it combines vibrant cherry fruit with a broad, generously structured palate and the elegance of carefully integrated French oak.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays an intense ruby-red colour. Its expressive nose is filled with ripe yet fresh red fruit, complemented by inviting cherry aromas with a subtle liqueur-like character. On the palate, it is full-bodied, powerful and well balanced, with generous fruit, polished tannins and a persistent finish. The 2023 vintage is approachable now, particularly when served with food, while its structure and balanced acidity should allow it to develop further over the next few years.

Production
Made from 100% Sangiovese, the grapes undergo maceration with délestage and regular pumping over in stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 28°C. The wine is then matured for 10–12 months in toasted 225-litre French oak barrels, with approximately 33% of the barrels renewed each year, followed by at least three months of bottle ageing.

Food & Serving
A versatile partner for classic Tuscan cuisine, this Chianti Classico is well suited to grilled or roasted meats, beef stew, game, pasta with rich tomato or ragù sauces, and mature hard cheeses. Serve at approximately 16–18°C. Decanting is not essential for the 2023 vintage, but 20–30 minutes in a decanter can help open up its fruit and soften its youthful structure.

Producer
Tenuta di Nozzole is a historic estate in Chianti Classico whose winemaking roots date back to the 14th century. The property was acquired by the Folonari family in 1971 and has since become an important part of the family’s Tuscan wine portfolio. Its long-standing presence in the region reflects a commitment to expressing the character of Sangiovese and the distinctive identity of Chianti Classico.
