Description

The Chianti Classico Riserva Zingarelli family of the Rocca delle Macie winery was born in the heart of the Chianti Classico area.

It is mainly produced with Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, carefully picked and selected by hand. After fermentation, which takes place at controlled temperature, the wine ages for about 2 years in French oak barrels and for a further 3 months in bottle.

It is characterized by an intense ruby red color, which tends to garnet with aging. The nose opens with intense hints of red fruits, enriched with pleasant spicy notes. On the palate it is rich and persistent, with well integrated tannins.

Perfect to accompany pasta dishes with savory sauces, it is ideal in combination with game and aged cheeses.
