Chianti Classico DOCG 2019
Dark, strong ruby. Opulent bouquet of sweet cherry, blackberries and plums. Full and juicy body with a present fruit, soft, finely woven tannins and a medium-bodied, almost elegant finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"Bright ruby with a fine garnet rim. Appealing, multi-layered nose, smells of mulberries, juicy cherries and pomegranate, some cardamom. Polished and fine on the palate, spreads well, elegant, present tannin, lots of crisp fruit, good depth." Falstaff
"Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. Quite a bit of depth on the nose and with the merest hint of oak, but really subtly done. Succulent fruit palate with lots of gravelly tannins. Long and finely balanced." Jancis Robinson
"Lots of glossy, ripe fruits. Quite polished but with good buttressing acidity. Red jam, spice, and an earthy core." Decanter
"A very pleasant CC here with lots of succulent, ripe berries, blackcurrants and black cherries on both the nose and palate. Super-clean fruit with light hints of dried herbs and lavender coming through. The round, very fine tannins are ripe and well meshed together with the fruit, giving a nicely balanced finish. Delicious." James Suckling

Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2015
A beautiful traditional wine of the Chianti Classico. The bouquet of wild berries, undergrowth, herbs and spices is broad and multi-faceted, the full flavour with beautiful energy, fidelity to the terroir and considerable persistence. SUPERIORE.DE
"Dark, rich ruby. Fragrant, floral nose of roses and violets, then fresh wild berries, red currants, delicate spice. Dense and supple in the mouth, spreads out nicely, polished and with juicy tannin, firm pressure in the finish." Falstaff
"Mid ruby with orange tinges. Subtle, fine nose of red fruit and stones. Elegant, sappy red fruit and bags of jagged tannins that demand more time in the bottle. Its elegance, freshness and firm structure set it up for graceful ageing." Jancis Robinson
"The Castello di Radda 2015 Chianti Classico Riserva shows a ripe and nicely concentrated approach with sweet cherry, wild raspberry, crushed stone and grilled herb. This is a lean to mid-weight wine with the calming freshness and vitality that should be expected of Sangiovese from this prized corner of the Chianti Classico appellation." Robert Parker
"A soft, fruity red with aromas and flavors of dried cherries and orange peel. Medium to full body. Tangy and delicious. Shows the richness and ripeness of the vintage." James Suckling
"Dappled scents of fresh florals, autumn leaves and lovely tapered fruit with refined tannins and a long, poised finish." Decanter

Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG 2016
A beautiful traditional wine of the Chianti Classico. The bouquet of wild berries, undergrowth, herbs and spices is broad and multi-faceted, the full flavour with beautiful energy, fidelity to the terroir and considerable persistence. SUPERIORE.DE
"Spicy berry aromas, also pepper notes; pithy on the palate, tannins powerful, convincing final on notes of wild berries, tobacco and herbs. Should be enjoyed with a game dish." Vinum
"Lustrous ruby with orange tinges. Lifted and almost aromatic cherry fruit nose with hints of gingerbread and cumin. Sumptuous cherry fruit palate cut through by lots of tangy acidity and with crunchy tannins. Long succulent cherry fruit with plenty of stuffing on the finish. A well-wrought wine from an excellent vintage." Jancis Robinson
"Mature yet elegant and complex black fruits, spicy, dried herbs, sweet tobacco nose. Noble tannins with a robust texture, fresh finish." Decanter
"Blackberries, dark cherries and flowers on the nose and palate. Full-bodied and very cool with compact, linear tannins. Racy and structured." James Suckling
"Rich, with a vibrant backbone of acidity and tannins uplifting black cherry, blackberry and violet flavors. Dense and a bit restrained on the finish, this nevertheless lingers on the aftertaste, revealing floral, dark berry fruit and a streak of iron." Wine Spectator

The charming winery Castello di Radda is situated on a hill west of the village that gave its name to it, directly below the Castello di Volpaia. Next to the wineries Orlandi Contucci Ponno in Abruzzo and Lo Sparviere in the Lombard region of Franciacorta, famous for its sparkling wines, it is another ambitious wine project of the industrial dynasty Gussalli Beretta. With great ambition and spurred on by their love of fine wines, the family rebuilt the old estate not far from Volpaia, another top location in the Chianti region, which comprises 170 hectares of land. The loamy and calcareous soils with a high skeleton content, combined with favourable south-west and south-east locations, provide ideal conditions for Sangiovese and Canaiolo vines, which are reflected in authentic Chianti Classico wines.
When building the cellar, the Beretta family consistently followed their traditional path, opting for an underground installation designed by the architect Spartaco Mori and against the construction of a production plant in the middle of the picturesque Tuscan countryside. In 'sanctum' of the Castello di Radda winery, the harvested grapes are first carefully sorted in order to rule out the slightest mistake from the outset. During the vinification only minimal interventions are made. The IGT wines, ripened in small French oak barrels, which also include pure and blended IGT wines made from Merlot and/or Sangiovese, should develop according to their nature - also called controlled idleness in technical jargon.
The exquisite elegant Chianti Classico wines present themselves rich in finesse and possess a fine fullness of aroma. The terroir comes into its own in the glass - an achievement that is also appreciated by established wine guides and critics as Gambero RossoRobert Parkerappropriate. The fact that the products of the Chianti Classico winery are increasingly becoming the focus of wine lovers is by no means a matter of course in view of the still young history of the winery. The oenologist Maurizio Castelli, however, is a graduate and very experienced agricultural engineer in the Beretta family's boat, who was involved in the great success of the Supertoscans and who possesses the same high sensitivity of the estate owners towards the environment and high-quality cultivation techniques.
