Product Information

Grapes

Fortabraccio Chianti Riserva DOCG is produced from the selection of the best Sangiovese and Merlot grapes from our oldest vineyards.

Type of Land

Soil of sedimentary origin composed of marly calcareous clays. Among the prevalent types we find Chianti alberese, sandstone, clay, and other schists such as galestro.

Vinification, Maturation, Evolution and Refinement

After manual harvesting and destemming of the grapes, maceration takes place in concrete vats for a period of approximately 20 days in order to obtain the best extraction of color and tannins. The wine is then left to rest in French oak barriques for at least 12 months. A further 12 months of bottle aging then completes the cycle before it can be sold.

Organoleptic characteristics

Color: Deep ruby ​​red.

Perfume : The olfactory baggage unfolds between the tertiary notes of tobacco and leather, supported by aromas of jam, blackberries and plums, with some hints of aromatic herbs, such as sage and rosemary.

Taste: Soft attack in the mouth, showing tannins fused with the alcoholic component, for a finish that gives a fruity aftertaste.

Alcohol content

14.0% vol.

Gastronomic pairings

Wine to pair with robust first courses, sausages, roast pork, goes well with game and game, rich and tasty recipes and mature cheeses.

Serve at a temperature of 16-18°C.
