Barone Ricasoli, Chianti Classico, Brolio Gran Selezione 2019

Baron Riscasoli

Case Format: 6x75cl

Ricasoli is the most representative wine producer in the Chianti Classico area. With its gentle hills, velvety valleys and thick woodlands of oaks and chestnuts, the 1,200 hectares of property include almost 240 hectares of vineyards and 26 of olive groves. Francesco Ricasoli, current owner and President of the company, has generated new ideas and concepts to render the vineyards sustainable. The new wines are therefore the expression of research carried out with the same scientific rigor of his illustrious ancestor but with a contemporary spirit, like a runner receiving the baton and carrying it forward with renewed energy.

Castello di Brolio is their flagship wine created from a meticulous selection of estate-grown grapes. Produced only in the best years, this is an iconic wine which will leave a lasting impression. Its most salient features are the concentration and tannic structure. This prized blend, carefully aged in the cellars at Brolio Castle, warms hearts and souls and offers extraordinary taste which elegance and freshness stands even the test of many years of ageing.

CRITIC REVIEWS

James Button

Benefiting from a decade-long soil research program, Ricasolis flagship Castello di Brolio Gran Selezione is a blend of the estates three main soil types: Macigno del Chianti (sandstone), Scaglia Toscana (galestro), and Monte Morello (alberese), predominantly from higher elevations. Fragrant and floral with some dried red cherry and blackcurrant fruit scents, it has a soft texture and a good structure of fine, ripe tannins. Balsamic and chocolate flavours fill out the mid-palate, giving height and depth simultaneously.

This 2019 Barone Ricasoli Chianti Classico Castello Di Brolio Gran Selezione is a bright ruby color with slightly cooked fruit, baked cherry and apple notes. It has a light nose, with some earthy aromas that just need a little more definition and intensity. This wine has a very nice texture and weight with creamy, cherry flavors and crunchy, sappy, green fruit encased in fine tannins and balanced by fresh acidity. An attractive wine with a medium finish. Drink 2020-2029
