Cigliano di Sopra, Vigneto Branca Chianti Classico Riserva 2022 Ried Weinberg

Cigliano di Sopra, Vigneto Branca Chianti Classico Riserva 2022 Ried WeinbergHealthy mid ruby. Firm, compact and balsamic with complex perfumed fruit rising from the glass with aeration. Succulent, perfumed fruit on the palate and with a gorgeous layer of sandy tannins. Super elegant and very long. Walter Speller, jancisrobinson. com (17. 5)

Dark crimson

Chardonnay

The basis for the vermouth is a Moscato Bianco Langarolo wine to which a pure and meticulously refined alcohol is added along with about fifteen different aromatic and medicinal herbs gathered from alpine slopes surrounding Turin

fruity lemon with floral notes of acacia and hawthorn

its juicy black fruit is nicely balanced by tart

when savoriness

and a hint of apricot with a light note of fresh pastries

I’d love to drink this well-balanced wine with a meal this very day… But it shouldn’t age too quickly

this comes from aging white wine in Acacia wood barrels

though there are some nice dry appetising tannins on the finish

Fine structured

peppermint followed by oranges
