CASTELLARE | Toscana

Table 21

CHIANTI CLASSICODOCG Located in the Chianti Classico commune of Castellina, this Castellare offering is comprised primarily of the local Sangiovese grape, Sangioveto. Research begun in the late 1970s allowed Castellare to isolate this clone and enabled the winery to make this very unique style of a Tuscan classic.

VINTAGE: ______

CHIANTI CLASSICO RISERVA DOCG IL POGGIALE Made from a majority of Sangioveto and balanced with Canaiolo and Ciliegiolo, all grown in the Poggiale vineyard, the grapes come from an elevation of almost 1,500 feet above sea level. The combination of high elevation and low yields results in a wine that manages to simultaneously show both restraint and layered richness. This classic red has great aging capability.

VINTAGE: ______

MERLOT TOSCANA IGT POGGIO AI MERLI Poggio ai Merli is made entirely from Merlot and named after the single vineyard from which it is produced. Located in the heart of Chianti Classico, grapes are imbued with all the terroir-driven characteristics of Tuscany’s most famous viticultural area. This wine embodies Castellare’s innovation by producing international varietals in an area world famous for Sangiovese.
