In years past, Rocca Guicciarda was one of the Baroni Ricasoli’s most important estates. Today, it is the name of the estate’s Chianti Classico Riserva, a traditional wine full of aromas and sensations through an austere character and complex, balanced drinkability. the aromas and sensations of the territory.

Chianti Classico

Winter arrived at the end of December but lasted longer than usual. As expected, January was the coldest month of the year but the barometer continued to fall below zero until early March, sending temperature readings plummeting and covering Brolio in a thick blanket of snow.
Throughout April and May, the growth of the vines was boosted by generous rainfall that produced a plentiful water supply which, unlike in the previous year, was not required thanks to the more balanced rise in temperatures.
The mild climate and moderate rain delayed the various growth phases, starting with the colouring of the fruit on the vine that started late, in mid-August.

Once again this vintage shows the typical characteristics of the Rocca Guicciarda at their best, with roundness and balance holding sway over its various elements. It has a deep, intense colour, a clean, fruity nose, and a full, elegant body showing a very long finish.
