The genealogy of the old and venerable Ricasol family goes back to the time of Charlemagne. The Castello di Brolio manor has been owned by the family since 1141. Ricasoli is the 4th oldest company in the world, the 2nd in the world of wine and the oldest Italian wine estate. deep ruby red in color. The aroma is berry structured with dark stone fruits, black forest berries and cherry marmalade with structured berry park, roasted coffee beans and light spice. The taste is medium-bodied and cherry-fruity. The mid-palate is enlivened by ripe dark berries, plus some blackcurrant with silky spiciness and mild herbiness. The aftertaste is berry-long and silky tannic and sweetly spicy. Milk chocolate and cocoa are added to the aftertaste. The grapes are hand-picked from the Chianti Classico region, from vineyards located at an altitude of 280-480m above sea level. The wine is fermented in stainless steel barrels and aged in large and small oak barrels for 15 months and in the bottle for 9 months. Rocca Guicciarda is a separate wine estate owned by Baron Ricasoli. 7-9 years of development potential, considering the year of picking the berries.
