About this wine:
It is one of Candialle's flagship wines. Crafted from Sangiovese and aged for 18 months in Burgundy oak barrels, it is medium to full-bodied. It delights the palate with flavors of red fruits, sweet cherries, plums, and subtle floral notes. The wine offers a luxurious fruit profile, accompanied by a silky and round texture yet still maintains its lightness and elegance. Its aroma is refined, and the finish is long, leaving a lingering impression. With its depth and complexity, this wine truly captivates the senses.
WineCritics .com - "A wine with a slightly cloudy nose that shows hints of black plums, liquorice and chocolate in the background. Full body, ripe and well integrated tannins and a solid and very compact finish. Delicious now through 2023 and beyond. A blend of Merlot, Sangiovese and Petit Verdot. Delicious now through 2023 and beyond."
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "Josephin and Jarkko Peränen are the faces of Candialle. Their 2015 Chianti Classico Riserva is all Sangiovese aged in French oak (with a mere 1,500 bottles made), and it shows the sunshine and the concentrated fruit of a warm vintage. Panzano in Chianti is especially poised to deliver richness and softness in Sangiovese, and those qualities are amply delivered here."
Falstaff - "Rich, dark ruby red with a purple tinge, Subtle aromas of wild raspberries and redcurrant with hints of dried rose petals. A wonderful freshness on the palate with some minerality. Develops slowly but then unfolds, but seems a little young to show its best assets."
關於酒莊：

About CANDIALLE:
Candialle is a member of the “viticulturist union of Panzano” in Chianti. Their objectives are to enhance and optimise minimalist, natural winegrowing, which could lead Panzano to being the first complete organic viticultural region of Italy. This exquisite boutique winery owned and managed by a couple team, Jarkko and Josephin Peränen, their vineyard is located at the southern tip of the “Conca d’oro”, the golden bowl, situated just below the village of Panzano in Chianti. The valley is formed like an amphitheatre and is characterised by its unique Galestro soil, a combination of limestone, clay, sandstone, and chalk, together with the southern and south-western exposure, altitudes between 300 and 360 metres, build up the perfect terrain for the demanding and late ripening Sangiovese grape. When it comes to winemaking, Candialle is the only winery in the region to still use the old albarello or ancient bush vine trellising systems, all fermentations are native and aging happens not only in concrete, stainless steel, and used Burgundy barrels, they are the first in Italy to use Clayvers, which is a unique ceramic egg-shaped container made in Liguria and are fired at high temperatures that are much less porous than barrels. Their wines not only show stunning flavours and aroma of fruit when young but age extremely well.
