Chianti DOCG Riserva (750 ml bottle, 12.5% ABV) by La Fortezza is a structured, elegant red wine of great character, crafted from selected grapes in the heart of Tuscany and aged for a refined period in oak barrels. In the glass, it shows an intense ruby red color that tends towards garnet with aging. The nose reveals a rich and complex bouquet, with enveloping notes of ripe cherry, morello cherry, and wild berries, enhanced by elegant hints of sweet spices, tobacco, and vanilla coming from its careful aging. On the palate, it is warm, velvety, and well-structured, supported by smooth tannins and a pleasant freshness that leads to a long and lingering finish. It pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as red meats, game, roasts, and mature cheeses.

Ingredients

Sangiovese grapes (and other native varieties authorized by the regulations), sulfites.
