Note di degustazione
Violets, rose petals and dark red/black-toned fruits lift from the glass in Volpaia's 2010 Chianti Classico Riserva. The aromatics and brightness of the flavors are quite typical of the year, while the softer structure makes the Riserva a bit more accessible and translucent today than the Coltassala. Suggestions of cinnamon and lavender linger on the delicate, hugely appealing finish.

Just mid ruby with orange tinges. Peppery, savoury, minerally, and almost salty on the nose. Really compact and tightly-woven on the palate. Youthful fruit sweetness and gripping tannins that are like building blocks. Powerful style, but with class. (WS)
The 2010 Chianti Classico Riserva straddles a fine line between modernity and traditionalism. Aromas are chiseled and defined with bold cherry, Spanish cedar, moist tobacco and pressed red flower. The fruit layering is rich, but never over-the-top. In fact, the wine feels downright elegant, tight and pristine overall. It’s a pure expression of Sangiovese. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022. Castello di Volpaia is one of the banner estates of the Radda in Chianti subzone of Chianti Classico in Siena province. It is managed by the Mascheroni Stianti family: Giovannella, Carlo, Nicolo and Federica. Thanks to high-elevation vineyards, Volpaia’s wines are celebrated for their freshness and finesse.
