I Sodi del Paretaio Chianti – DOCG Riserva
Chianti is, for the entire world, unquestionably the most famous ltalian wine of all. The Gaslini Alberti contribute to the quality of this appellation, producing “I Sodi del Paretaio Riserva”, a typical expression of this wine. The Sangiovese grape is lord and master, as it is the only variety utilized. Eighteen months of aging in 1160 gallon (4400 liter) oak casks have rounded off the angles and the tannins, giving the wine an admirable balance both in terms of aroma and flavor.
