Elegant, expressive, and authentically Tuscan, Castellare Chianti Classico Riserva Il Poggiale 2022 showcases the beauty of Sangiovese grown in the heart of Chianti Classico. This estate-bottled Riserva represents the pinnacle of Castellare’s dedication to tradition, terroir, and craftsmanship — combining old-vine fruit, meticulous vineyard care, and aging in fine oak barrels to deliver a wine of remarkable depth and balance.
In the glass, Il Poggiale reveals a vibrant ruby-red color with garnet reflections. The bouquet is captivating, offering aromas of ripe cherry, violet, tobacco, and cedar, accented by hints of wild herbs and earth. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, showcasing layers of red plum, dried flowers, spice, and polished tannins that carry through to a long, savory finish. Every sip reflects the mineral-rich soils and high-altitude vineyards that give this Riserva its refined, structured character.
Aged in French oak barriques and large casks for balance and complexity, the 2022 vintage embodies both freshness and maturity — a signature trait of Castellare’s winemaking philosophy. The result is a Chianti Classico Riserva that delivers the perfect harmony of fruit, acidity, and oak, capturing the essence of Tuscany in every glass.
Ideal for pairing with roast meats, aged cheeses, and hearty pasta dishes, this Riserva also rewards patience — capable of evolving gracefully in the cellar for years to come. Whether you’re a long-time Italian wine lover or exploring Chianti for the first time, Castellare Il Poggiale 2022 stands out as a benchmark expression of Sangiovese elegance and power.
