Carpineto Chianti Classico Riserva 2017 750ml

WS90
A complex and elegant bouquet highlighted by persistent raspberry and vanilla aromas. It is warm and full with a velvety mouthfeel and a long, generous finish. This Riserva will reward extensive cellaring and pairs perfectly with roasts and game. A highly selective manual harvest is conducted from mid-September to mid-October. Fermented in stainless steel tanks at 25-30°C over 10-15 days, then left in contact with the skins for an additional 10-15 days. Frequent pumpovers were conducted. The wine was filtered before bottling.
