Aiola Chianti Classico Riserva

Aiola Chianti Classico Riserva is a traditionally made Chianti Classico from the heart of Chianti. Made from the best fruit on the estate. Primarily Sangiovese with a little Merlot and Colorino thrown in.   Fermentation takes takes place in stainless steel tanks and then the wine is transferred to large 50 hl French oak barrels, where the wine will sit for 24 months, followed by at least 3 more months in the bottle.

Deep ruby red color with purple reflections.  Complex scent of pulpy dark berry fruit, slightly spicy with a touch of aromatic herbs.  Medium body, soft tannins, and a very pleasant and long finish.

Paolo Salvi, one of the  great oenologists in Tuscany, is the man responsible for creating the wine.
