Coniale 2020 Rosso Toscana IGT: elegance and structure from the heart of Chianti

Coniale 2020 by Castellare di Castellina is a Rosso Toscana IGT made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, a refined expression of a project born to enhance the territory of Castellina in Chianti with a style focused on balance, depth, and longevity. It is a red wine of significant character, designed for those seeking an authoritative, intense bottle capable of accompanying the table with character and precision.

Territory and wine style

The grapes come from Castellina in Chianti, in the province of Siena, from vineyards located between 350 and 400 meters above sea level. The fine, skeleton-rich soil helps define a tense and territorial profile, while the choice of pure Cabernet Sauvignon enhances the wine's vocation for structure, concentration, and finesse. The vinification in steel and aging in barrique, with a portion of new wood, complete a stylistic journey aimed at a modern red well-rooted in its Tuscan origins.

Tasting notes

The sip is broad, intense, and persistent, with a long, fruity finish that highlights its elegance and ability to evolve over time.
