“Il Castelvecchio”
Emotion: Roundness
CHIANTI COLLI FIORENTINI D.O.C.G. ORGANIC
This particular wine fully reflects our philosophy of work, the traditional Sangiovese blend with a touch of smoothness of Merlot. The good tannic reaches equilibrium with ageing in wood for 12 months and further refinement in bottle. All Castelvecchio vineyards are located in the production area of Chianti Colli Fiorentini DOCG (Denomination Controlled and Garantee).
Il Castelvecchio is the most popular and representative label of our winery. It receives every year good reviews and ratings for its pleasant taste and good quality/price-ratio.
On the back label, from 2018 vintage, it is possible to find the Organic Certification.
