Tech Sheet
Castellina in Chianti is located deeply inside the classic area of Chianti production among the valley of the Elsa, Pesa and Arbia rivers. The finest grapes from the sunniest hillside vineyards are selected to produce this wine. It is then aged for a minimum of two years in Slavonian oak barrels, in order to be described as a “RISERVA”.
