Chianti Classico stands as one of the world’s most celebrated red wines, and among the myriad of producers in Tuscany, few have garnered the acclaim that Castello di Monsanto enjoys. Known for their dedication to tradition and quality, this historic estate consistently delivers wines that resonate with both wine lovers and critics alike.
The Chianti Classico Riserva is a testament to their expertise. Crafted from a meticulous selection of grapes from vineyards renowned for their aging potential, this wine offers an impressive array of aromas. Notes of morello cherry, nutmeg, and a hint of oregano create a captivating bouquet. While boasting excellent concentration, it carries a slightly lighter touch than many riservas, maintaining the hallmark freshness of the region. The palate is rewarded with vibrant acidity, elegant persistence, and a refined structure that speaks to its aging process—18 months in small second-passage oak barrels, followed by at least 3 months in bottle.
This Riserva exemplifies the depth and finesse that Castello di Monsanto is celebrated for, making it a superb choice for both immediate enjoyment and extended cellaring.

Delivery Times
We will look to have your delivery with you within 3 working days of receiving the order but please ask if you need it by a certain date and we'll do our best.
Vintages
We will endeavour to deliver vintages as advertised but they often change faster than we can update (we're pretty slow). So, again, it may be wise to confirm before ordering if you're in need of something particular. Please note: Some bottle images may not show the current vintage.
Surcharges
Surcharges often apply to deliveries outside mainland England so wise to confirm before you order. Indeed, Northern Ireland is beyond us unless shipping charges agreed beforehand.
