The Gallo Nero seal should already be a guarantee. A seal of quality for a Tuscan red that comes from one of Italy's most fascinating areas. That little corner of paradise for wine lovers that lies between the provinces of Florence and Siena. We are, of course, talking about Chianti DOCG, but not the basic one, rather the 'Classico' one. Like this Castelgreve by Castelli del Grevepesa. 95% Sangiovese, 5% Merlot, this noble Tuscan matures for about 12 months in Slavonian oak barrels before bottling and a final rest period in the cellar. Intense ruby red in colour, this Chianti Classico presents itself with elegant aromas, notes of violets and nuances of ripe fruit. Full, harmonious taste with soft, velvety tannins and a lingering finish. For a barbecue, one could hope for nothing better. This Chianti, in fact, by its very nature goes well with savoury red meats, game and hard cheeses.
There is no area more fascinating and full of history and tradition than Chianti. And a piece of this history is linked to the name of Castelli del Grevepesa. We are in San Casciano Val di Pesa, some fifteen kilometres from Florence, right at the gateway to Chianti Classico. Here, in 1965, a group of 18 winegrowers gave life to a new reality. They were united by a single dream, that of keeping intact the centuries-old traditions of Tuscan viticulture, territory and farming customs. To do this, they immediately set their sights on the production of high quality wines, in compliance with the strict standards of the Black Rooster Consortium. Since then, a lot of wine has passed through the jars of the cellar, which over the years has grown to its current capacity of about 120 member companies, with vineyards mainly in the municipalities of Greve in Chianti, San Casciano Val di Pesa (Mercatale Val di Pesa), Tavarnelle Val di Pesa and Barberino Val d'Elsa. The range has clearly expanded and now includes wines from all the main regional denominations. From Chianti and Chianti Classico to Vernaccia, Nobile di Montepulciano and even includes a Maremma line, with Vermentino, Rosato and Morellino. But there is no shortage of goodies. Even if the size has changed, unchanged is the passion that is put into every day's work.
