Piccini 1882 – one of the most emblematic wine families in Tuscany, founded in 1882. Today, the winery combines the tradition of Tuscan winemaking with innovation and modern style, creating wines with a distinct regional character and contemporary spirit.
Origin and designation:
Chianti DOCG, Tuscany, Italy – a classic area for the production of red wines with a controlled and guaranteed designation of origin. The wine bears the “Riserva” designation, which indicates a longer aging period and higher quality.
Varietal composition:
Predominantly Sangiovese, with a small percentage of complementary varieties (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot), characteristic of the Piccini winery style.
Vinification and aging:
Fermentation at controlled temperature with prolonged maceration for maximum extraction of color and aromas.
Aged for a minimum of 24 months, partly in oak barrels, which gives additional depth, structure and complexity.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Color: Deep ruby red with garnet hues.
Aroma: Intense bouquet with notes of ripe black fruits, dried cherries, spices, leather and subtle nuances of vanilla and oak.
Taste: Full and harmonious, with well-integrated tannins, balanced acidity and a long, elegant finish with accents of tobacco and spices.
Food pairings:
Ideal with grilled red meats, game, pasta with meat sauces and mature Italian cheeses. Also suitable for special occasions, thanks to the magnum shape and the representative box.
