Castellinuzza 2020 – Chianti Classico Riserva

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The nose expresses freshness and a lively tangy frame of red (red cherry, cranberries, raspberry) and black (blueberry, blackcurrant) fruits. There is also a delicate floral bouquet (wild rose, violet), a toasted touch (toasted hazelnut, roasted), as well as a minty hint of pine needles, liquorice and rosemary. Notes of dark chocolate and coffee appear after aeration. The palate is enveloping, juicy and offers freshness and precision. It expresses the flavors of tart red cherry, morello cherry, blueberry, crushed raspberry, as well as minty and sappy touches of liquorice, rosemary and peppermint, combined with notes of tangy fruits (red cherry, raspberry, cranberries, bird cherry, blueberry), a good bitterness of almond and grapefruit, as well as a touch of rose petals in the background.
