From Barone Ricasoli, the historic estate founded in 1141 in Italy’s Chianti Classico region, the Rocca Guicciarda Chianti Classico Riserva DOC 2022 is a refined 100% Sangiovese sourced from a single 15-hectare vineyard in the Brolio zone of Gaiole in Chianti, featuring limestone-clay and galestro soils at 400 meters elevation that impart exceptional depth and mineral tension. Hand-harvested grapes from the outstanding 2022 vintage—marked by ideal ripening conditions yielding rich yet balanced fruit—undergo fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by 18-24 months’ aging in large oak casks and tonneaux to foster integration and longevity. As a top-tier Riserva from the estate’s flagship vineyard, this production yields a deep garnet wine with vibrant intensity and majestic structure.

Tasting Notes An elegant, complex red with ripe dark fruit and refined spice, reflecting Chianti Classico's limestone-clay terroir. The nose reveals black cherry, ripe plum, violet, and hints of graphite, licorice, and toasted oak. On the palate, it is full-bodied and seamless, with velvety tannins, bright acidity, and flavors of dark berries, espresso, and chalky minerality, leading to a long, harmonious finish.

Awards and Accolades The 2022 Rocca Guicciarda Chianti Classico Riserva earned 92 points from James Suckling for its opulent fruit, polished structure, and exceptional balance.

Serving and Cellaring Serve at 16-18°C with 60-90 minutes of decanting to unfold aromas. Ideal with roasted lamb, beef Wellington, or aged cheeses. Enjoy now through 2038, developing profound leather and truffle complexity over time.
