Castello di Volpaia Chianti Classico Riserva 2021 shows vivid, organically grown Sangiovese fruit, with juicy cherry and blackberry layered by dried flowers, subtle spice and a stony, savory edge. Medium-bodied yet firm and refined, it glides on powdery tannins and lively acidity, finishing long, focused and poised for graceful development.

Castello di Volpaia’s Chianti Classico Riserva is an organic, 100% Sangiovese Riserva from the high-elevation vineyards around Radda in Chianti, grown on sandstone (“macigno”) soils; it’s typically aged about two years in French and Slovenian oak and then bottled to show refined structure. The wine is known for bright cherry and floral notes edged by savory herbs, stony/mineral lift and firm, finely grained tannins—an elegant, food-friendly expression of Chianti Classico with aging potential.
