Castellare di Castellina I Sodi di San Niccolò 2017
Castellare’s top wine, ranked in the Wine Spectator Top 100 on multiple occasions and recognised with the prestigious “tre bicchieri” (three glasses) and “cinque grappoli” (five bunches of grapes) ratings. The company takes great pride in demonstrating the greatness of the Sangioveto variety, paired with Malvasia Nera, achieving a worldwide position of fifth place.

Colour

Intense red with hints of garnet.

Bouquet

Great olfactory concentration, thanks to the presence of a ripe red fruit that leads back to notes of jam, but also spices, vanilla and liquorice.

Flavour

In the mouth the wine is characterized by a dense and elegant texture, supported also by the important acidity of Sangiovese, the tannins are absolutely sweet and the finish long and very persistent.

Pairing

Pairs well with cold cuts and meat rich in flavour, cheeses with a strong and aromatic taste, in particular, Pecorino Toscano and Parmigiano.
