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.

PRODUCTION AREA
Chianti Classico

Heavy snow in February produced a good water supply. Thanks to a warm, sunny spring, the first buds appeared on the younger vines in the middle of April and the Sangiovese flowered at the end of May. Summer’s moderate temperatures and rain accelerated the various growing phases.
The Sangiovese started to colour on the vine towards the end of July, early compared to normal.
The ripening of the fruit was then delayed, however, by the rather low temperatures at the end of the summer.

Always harmonious, this wine reveals lovely fruity aromas on the nose and a palate that displays all of its elegance in a wellbalanced profile and impressive length. It presents a concentrated ruby appearance with faint purplish highlights that with time and ageing will evolve into a deeper red colour.
