CHIANTI CLASSICO RISERVA DOCG 2022 - BORGO LA STELLA

Several years have passed since the last Chianti Classico Riserva from Borgo La Stella.
The winery's enologist, Maurizio Alongi, chose to embrace the 2022 vintage—a particularly warm and promising year—producing a Riserva that already shows great intensity today, but will undoubtedly star in a splendid evolution over the years.

A successful bet, already evident from its bright and inviting ruby red color.

Maturation in used tonneaux for 24 months has yielded depth and olfactory richness, without in the slightest compromising the typical freshness of the wines from the Radda winery, where the predominantly calcareous soil, altitude, and bush vine training have always deeply characterized them.

On the palate, Borgo La Stella's 2022 Riserva is velvety with notes of caramel and salt.

In the long finish, fruit notes return along with the full heart of Sangiovese.


PAIRINGS: Pappardelle with hare or wild boar ragù, Fiorentina steak, red wine-braised beef.
