This red in Riserva quality is dedicated to Bettino Ricasoli, who wrote down the grape variety blend of today's Chianti as early as 1872. But he was much more than that: twice prime minister of the united Italy (1861 and 1866), founder of the daily newspaper "La Nazione", agricultural researcher and "father" of the first product specification of Chianti. The creation of this wine interprets his tireless will to create an independent Chianti style that is both traditional and contemporary to this day.

Chianti Classico Brolio Bettino captivates with a hauntingruby red. The intense and inviting aroma of dark fruits is underpinned with noble balsamic notes. Flawless on the palate with well-proportioned acidity and perfectly integrated tannin, powerful and long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Medium red; fruity, also bark, inviting; barrel-fruity, juicy, round, long, very pleasant." Merum

"Powerful sparkling ruby red. Ripe blackberry fruit adorns the nose, juicy wild strawberries, poppy seeds and dried rose petals, also a light balsamic touch. Pleasant on the palate, with fine fruit melting, in velvety interwoven tannin dress, polished, lots of dark ripe fruit on the final, lingers long." Falstaff
