This wine is born from a historic vineyard and a careful selection of grapes, with a profile that enhances the nobility of the \u003cstrong\u003eCastelnuovo Berardenga\u003c\/strong\u003e area and the authentic personality of a Reserve designed for those seeking a structured red, but also one of tension and finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTerritory and wine style\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eChianti Classico Riserva DOCG\u003c\/strong\u003e designation finds here a rigorous and coherent interpretation, based on \u003cstrong\u003e100% Sangiovese\u003c\/strong\u003e. The Rancia vineyard is located in the upper part of the Poggio a Rancia area, at an altitude between 350 and 400 meters above sea level, in a context suited for the slow and complete ripening of the grapes. The limestone-based soils, predominantly alberese and galestro, contribute to defining a wine with a well-present acid spine, an elegant texture, and a strong gastronomic vocation. The magnum format also adds evolutionary capacity and a broader perception of its complexity over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a \u003cstrong\u003eruby red\u003c\/strong\u003e of good intensity and hue. On the nose, it offers spicy nuances, floral notes, and hints of small red and black fruits, with mineral undertones and a slight toasted sensation. On the palate, the sip is straight, tight, and engaging, supported by a lively acidic line and young, consistent tannins that are already harmonious. The structure is defined, and the finish leaves a savory and persistent trail, typical of a territorial Sangiovese capable of uniting energy and finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eRancia Chianti Classico Riserva 2017 DOCG Magnum\u003c\/strong\u003e pairs naturally with dishes from Tuscan and structured Italian cuisine.
