Single Product

Chianti Classico Riserva Tenuta Lilliano is produced with grapes: 95% Sangiovese, 5% Merlot

Production Technique:
The grapes that give rise to the Riserva come from the finest vineyards of the Lilliano Estate, carefully handpicked during the harvest.

Alcoholic fermentation takes place in small stainless steel and cement tanks with temperature control, and after malolactic fermentation, the wine matures in large French oak barrels for 14-15 months. Following this period, there is a minimum of 6 months of bottle aging.

Organoleptic Characteristics:
Color: lively ruby red with a tendency towards light garnet hues as it ages.
Aroma: very intense with a predominant floral note, particularly violet, typical of Chianti Sangiovese from Castellina in Chianti.
Taste: Upon tasting, the excellent balance between structure, tannins, and gustatory freshness immediately emerges. Good acidity prolongs the drinking experience and enhances the flavor.

Pairings:
The wine lends itself very well to long aging and pairs perfectly with red meats, particularly roasted and stewed game.
