Description
The Castello di Meleto Chianti Classico Riserva is wonderfully approachable with an inviting nose of ripe red fruits intermingled with aromatic herbs and sweet spices. The palate is rounded, medium to full bodied with soft tannins and a long, complex and elegant finish.
Grapes are harvested by hand after vigorous selection in the vineyard. Stems are removed and grapes are soft pressed. The must obtained undergoes spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in 53 Hl wooden casks. Once the fermentation is complete, the wine remains in contact with the skins for 20-25 days before it is introduced into cement vats for malolactic fermentation. The wine ages 20 months in 54 hl Slavonian oak barrels and concrete vats.
95% Sangiovese & 5% Merlot

2022 Gonzo Combat Rouge, Vandal Wine Company
Red Blend
The Gonzo Combat Rouge is a rather unusual field blend of Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc and Viognier which are co-fermented with whole bunch fermentation. The results is a beautifully supple yet plush and ripe red wine with sweet, spicy raspberry and cherry fruit. We've found it drinks best slightly chilled on a warm evening.

2011 Chateau Bellegrave, AC Pomerol
Bordeaux Blend
The 2011 vintage had a hard act to follow coming after two exceptional years in Bordeaux and whilst the wines aren't as showy as the '09's and '10's they are charming and drinking beautifully with a decade in bottle.
