Barone Ricasoli, Chianti Classico Brolio - 2007

Winery Story

Barone Ricasoli is the oldest winery in Italy, producing wine at the estate since 1141. The current owner, Barone Francesco Ricasoli, is the... (more...) 32nd generation baron of the family. But Baron Bettino Ricasoli, born in 1809, is credited with establishing the formula for Chianti Classico wine.

Tasting Note

91/100Wine SpectatorA lack of winter cold, the right amount of rain and a sudden change in temperature led in some areas to budding as early... (more...) as the first week in April.The spring months were marked by rain and high temperatures which fostered perfect fruit set.The summer months were hot with relatively cool nights and little but well dispersed rain that allowed the grapes to ripen very evenly – earlier with respect to previous seasons.Blend80% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon
