The Viticcio Riserva Chianti Classico DOCG represents the true heart of Tuscany. It is made mainly from Sangiovese grown in the historic hills of Greve in Chianti, an area known for its perfect mix of altitude, warm days and cool nights. These conditions help the grapes develop rich flavours while keeping freshness and harmony.

This Riserva is aged longer than a standard Chianti Classico, giving it more complexity and depth. On the nose, the wine shows red cherry, violet, plum and hints of sweet spice. Gentle oak notes appear in the background. On the palate, the Viticcio Riserva Chianti Classico DOCG is smooth, structured and well balanced. Its tannins are fine, and the finish is long and elegant.
