Description
The Brancaia Chianti Classico 2022 is a 100% Sangiovese that matures only in steel first and then in concrete in order to safeguard the most delicate aromas of the noble Tuscan vine. In the mouth it is taut and refreshing
The history of Brancaia is relatively recent. It dates back to the early eighties when the Swiss couple Brigitte and Bruno Widmer fell in love with the Chianti Classico hills and decided to buy an abandoned farm just outside Castellina in Chianti: Brancaia. The success of the wines from this estate was almost immediate and hence the need to invest in nearby Radda in Chianti, in the locality of Poppi and later also in Maremma not far from the Tuscan coast. The passion of the Widmers was soon transmitted to their daughter Barbara who, after studying oenology, personally follows and directs the company. The identity of Brancaia wines is very precise. Its fans appreciate it for its ripe fruit and clean aromas, the delicacy of the sip, always present in its simpler wines and the important structure in its more ambitious wines.
