CASTELLO DI VOLPAIA CHIANTI CLASSICO 2022

Galestro and alberese soils at roughly 2,000 feet define Volpaia's position as one of Chianti Classico's highest-altitude communes, where cool nights preserve acidity and extend hang time for Sangiovese. Castello di Volpaia, an organically farmed 11th-century estate run by the Mascheroni-Stianti family, works south-facing slopes that deliver structure alongside genuine aromatic lift. The 2022 shows cherry, raspberry, and dried herb on the nose, with red berry fruit, subtle earthiness, and warm spice on the palate leading to a persistent, fruit-driven finish.
