Riecine Chianti Classico 2022
The flagship of our portfolio is the Riecine Chianti Classico. The wine is 100% Sangiovese made in a classical style, medium bodied with lots of fruit character, light tannins and a spicy finish. It is authentic and true to the Gaiole terroir.

Colour

Ruby red.

Bouquet

Fruity and fine red wine, with subtle notes of rose and eucalyptus.

Flavour

Elegant with a medium bodied structure, finishing on velvety and rounded tannins.

Pairing

Accompanies all Tuscan dishes. Ideal with pasta and tomato sauce, al ragù or simply with a drizzle of Olive Oil Extravergine – from Riecine for best results. Goes very well with poultry, meat balls, Gratins (meat pie, like Hachis Parmentier of Duck – a real blast!) and all kind of slightly spicy stew dishes. Our favorite tips would be for a barbecue with friends, enjoying a sunset.
