'Drugo' Chianti Classico DOCG Riserva

Wine produced with grapes mainly from the vineyard called “Querceto” at 375 meters above sea level of our property. The Riserva DRUGO DOCG it is a full-bodied, well-structured wine which, in order to regulate, is aged for 24 months in oak barrels. The Drugo it has complex characteristics, a fine but intense bouquet with spices and wood aromas that intertwine with evolved and ripe black fruits, such as blackberry, blackcurrant and cherry. It has an intense and full fragrance as the olfactory profile is persistent, with a grassy and spicy taste, it can vary from black pepper, to rhubarb, to a touch of laurel and cardamom. Garnet red color with intense purple reflections. A wine certainly of character and depth, particularly round and with a long finish, with balanced acidity and robust tannins, even in difficult years. Its bottle aging potential is 7-10 years and beyond. Our advice is to combine it with hearty dishes such as fresh egg pasta with beef and beef ragù, but also potato gnocchi with wild boar ragù, or baked lasagna, risotto with truffles or with fresh seasonal mushrooms, and polenta with ragù. Excellent with very seasoned pecorino cheeses, Tuscan salami, finocchiona or roasts with baked livers.
