Castellare Di Castellina

Monastero

Campanaio Toscana Rosso Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2013

From Podere Monastero and winemaker Alessandro Cellai, the outstanding winemaker of Castellare. Despite overlooking an area most celebrated for some of the worlds best Sangiovese-based wine, for this limited production wine, Cellai uses a relatively even split of Cabernet and Merlot. Full and aromatic, with dark fruits, earth and coffee, it has a very soft texture with the trademark ultra-fine tannins common from this winemaker's touch. Surprised that the '13 does not have even more grip in the finish, but very enjoyable. — 7 years ago

Vigneti Belvedere Riserva Chianti Classico Sangiovese Merlot

Earthy tones, medium viscosity, slight fruitiness once you let the wine breath. Becomes more subtle in the earthy tones once the one breaths for 10 mins.

Podere San Donatino

Poggio Ai Mori Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2011

Podere San Donatino (Castellina in Chianti) was bought in 1971 by Léo Ferré the great French poet and singer, now there's his wife Maria Cristina Diaz with their children to manage the winery. Spontaneous fermentations, wild yeasts, prolonged maceration - about three weeks - though the wines stay “sur lie” for several months. This Chianti Classico Poggio ai Mori is aged only in stainless steel while the Riserva does age in older wood. It's a 100% of a nitty-gritty sangiovese, edibles almost, nourishing even to the nose; mellow and sincere just a perfect pairing with some peasant but refined bread and salami (pane e salame), quietly singing "Les Anarchistes" facing the Tuscan sunset among you, the always empty glass and the Chaos out of the universe. — 8 years ago

スワーリングするだけで立ち上る華やかなアロマ。熟したプラムに香りとスモーキーな西洋杉の香り。この樽香がワインに厚みを与えている。そして、しっかりとした果実味とベルベットのような舌触り!なんとまろやか!!これは、最高!!!

Belvedere di San Leonino

Chianti Classico 2011 2011

Purchased from a little outlet of the winery in the town of Castellina in Chianti. For the wines of the Castellina area we enjoyed these the most. They are not imported into the USA. They only make a small number of bottles and import is not motivating. Great wine. — 11 years ago
