Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG Renzo Marinai
The Renzo Marinai Chianti Classico is a very well-balanced expression of Sangiovese showing a large component of ripe fruit balanced by structure and freshness. The fruity core of the wine’s bouquet is pleasantly surrounded by notes of spice, leather and delicate tobacco. It is a fantastic, informal and approachable wine
Renzo Marinai
Renzo Marinai’s estate is named after the nearby ancient church of San Martino. Renzo Marinai himself took over the estate in 1996 and, with the support of oenologist Giovanni Cappelli, completely reorganised its operations, converting it into an entirely organic farm. The estate covers about 33 hectares; just over eight are planted with vines. The terrain is undulating, rising and falling between 350 and 500 metres above sea level. The soil is marly, perfect for Sangiovese, allowing good drainage and the development of deep roots.
