2023 Tenuta di Carleone, Chianti Classico

Tenuta di Carleone is situated in the hills of Radda in Chianti, an estate built on a historic property with agricultural roots dating back to 1078. The wine is made from 100% Sangiovese, sourced from high-altitude vineyards featuring a mix of Alberese limestone and Galestro sandstone soils. In the glass, it shows bright red cherry and wild strawberry fruit balanced by subtle herbal notes and a distinct mineral edge. The 2023 vintage provided a growing season that allowed for careful ripening, which preserved the natural acidity and energy central to this wine's character. With its firm, finely textured tannins and vibrant structure, this bottle is balanced for immediate enjoyment or further time in the cellar.
