Ricasoli Brolio Chianti Classico has an intense ruby red colour and a fragrant bouquet with scents of small red fruit, vanilla and spicy notes with an appealing harmonious taste with balanced tannins. The intense persistence exalt the fresh and mineral notes typical of this wine. The grape varieties used include 80% Sangiovese, 5% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and fermentation takes place in stainless steel with 2/6 days of skins contact. This is followed by 9 months in barriques and tonneaux and a further 3-6 months of bottle ageing. Brolio successfully matches the superior drinkability that defines Chianti Classico in its young version with a full, complex structure, which makes this wine excellent in its category.
