CHIANTI CLASSICO RISERVA 2006, CASTELLO DI QUERCETO

TASTING NOTES

The Classico area of Chianit lies at its heart and covers the greatest vineyards. The Riserva designation indicates another step up - a superior wine in every respect to plain Chianti Classico. Add these two factors to the winemaking skill of Castelli di Querceto, which continues to garner praise from the world's top wine critics, and you have a wine that at under £20 is an astonishing bargain.

PRODUCER NOTES

According to the famed Gambero Rosso guide, “Castello di Querceto remains among the most impressive operations, with its entire line of wines riding high”. The spectacular 65 hectare estate has been owned by the Francois family for over 100 years and the current owner Alessandro has overseen a significant rise in quality over the last decade, resulting in a great deal of critical acclaim, most notably from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. The Querceto wines effortlessly combine classic Sangiovese characteristics with the silky and luxurious texture you would expect from one of the region’s best estates.
