RODANO CHIANTI CLASSICO RISERVA 750 ml

Nestled in the rolling hills of Castellina, right in the core of Chianti Classico, Fattoria di Rodáno stands as a timeless cornerstone of Tuscan winemaking. This storied property traces its roots to the sixteenth century, when it first emerged as a dedicated wine estate in Italy's Tuscany region. For generations, the Pozzesi family has stewarded these lands, pouring their passion into every vintage of Rodano Chianti Classico Riserva. Vittorio Pozzesi led the charge starting in 1967, when the family began bottling their wines, marking a new chapter for the domaine. Today, his son Enrico carries the torch, overseeing operations with the same unwavering commitment. The estate once benefited from the expertise of Giulio Gambelli, a revered figure in Chianti circles until his passing in 2012. Gambelli's influence extended to prestigious names like Montevertine and Gianfranco Soldera, lending an air of quiet mastery to Rodáno's output. Spanning more than a hundred hectares of vines, this expansive property remains one of Tuscany's understated treasures. Rodano Chianti Classico Riserva captures that essence—a red wine from the heart of Italy, clocking in at 14.50% ABV in a standard 750 ml bottle. With its dry profile (sweetness level 01), it embodies the classic style that draws enthusiasts seeking authentic Tuscan reds. Imagine uncorking a bottle that whispers secrets from centuries past, each sip revealing layers shaped by family hands and legendary guidance. Whether pairing with hearty pasta, grilled meats, or simply savoring solo, this Chianti Classico Riserva invites you into Rodáno's world. At $41.99, it's an accessible entry to a hidden gem, perfect for collectors or casual lovers of Italian wine. Discover why Fattoria di Rodáno continues to captivate, bottle by bottle, in the timeless pursuit of Chianti excellence.
