Cinciano Chianti Classico DOCG
This is a 100% Sangiovese, which was allowed by DOCG rules only since 1996 – before it had to be a blend. As the property’s flagship wine, it is sourced from a variety of soils, altitudes and vine ages from all over the estate. The wine has a deep opaque ruby colour in the glass. On the nose it shows medium-intensity aromas of red plum, chokeberry, herb/licorice and bitter chocolate. With a dry, medium-framed palate and a medium acidity, it has a solid length and fruit with black plum, creamy notes and chocolate, and a medium finish. 2024-2027–IR
Cinciano Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG
It has a deep opaque, still ruby appearance and the lifted medium intensity aromas of chocolate, cream, toffee and red plum preserve. The extra dry palate shows a medium acidity, and the house-style medium-plus extract, fine-textured tannins, body and length. It is all wrapped nicely with lovely fruit persistence with black and red plum, bitter chocolate, hint of tar and chicory notes onto the medium-plus finish. 2024-2030–IR
Cinciano Pietra Forte Rosso Toscana IGT
A Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese blend, all three vinified separately and blended after ageing for 12 months in barriques and large vats. A deep purple, opaque robe in the glass. On the nose, it shows medium-intensity aromas of typical Tuscan elements: chestnut and sealing wax along with shoe polish, tar/smoke/cold ashes and prune spread. It is dry on the palate with a medium acidity, medium-plus components like the extract, the fine-textured tannins, the body, the length and the persistence of the poached plum, char, nuts/chestnut, and chicory root, as well as a medium-plus finish. 2024-2030–IR
