Brolio Bettino Chianti Classico Docg

Distinctive traits: Harmonious, velvety, full bodied

This label is dedicated to Bettino Ricasoli who, in 1872, created the formula for the production of Chianti. President of the Council of united Italy in 1861 and 1866, he was also founder of the newspaper "La Nazione", experimenter in agriculture, and "father" of the first production rules (disciplinare) of Chianti wine. By producing this wine, we have tried to interpret his will, working on those elements that remind us the most of the style of his time.

Ageing: 18 months in big casks, followed by static decantation and a minimum of 3-months bottle ageing
Alcohol: 14% Vol.

Tasting notes

Intense ruby red colour. On the nose fresh, floral hints, with notes of violet, freesia, and red fruit. The palate is sweet and balanced. It has a good structure and elegance.
