Società Agricola GaglioleChianti Classico Riserva 2018

About this wine

This is a Chianti Classico Riserva that shows exactly why Tuscany's most famous region deserves its reputation. The 2018 vintage from Società Agricola Gagliole captures that perfect balance between power and elegance that makes these wines so food-friendly and rewarding to drink.

On the nose, you'll find red cherry and plum with a hint of dried herbs and tobacco leaf. The palate is structured but not heavy, with firm tannins that feel refined rather than aggressive. There's a nice freshness here too, with bright acidity that keeps everything in balance.

This wine loves Tuscan classics. Pair it with ribollita, wild boar stew, or aged cheeses. It also works beautifully with roasted meats and game. Serve it slightly cool, around 16 to 18 degrees, and give it 20 minutes of air before drinking. The Sangiovese grape shows its best here, giving you that classic earthy character with enough fruit to keep things interesting. This is the kind of wine that gets better as it sits in your glass.
