Castelli del Grevepesa s.c.a. - Via Gabbiano, 34 - 50026 San Casciano Val di Pesa (FI)
Chianti Classico DOCG Gran Selezione Clemente VII by Castelli del Grevepesa is a tribute to the history and tradition of Tuscan winemaking, embodying the excellence of the appellation. Born from the best Sangiovese parcels cultivated in the heart of Chianti Classico, this wine reflects the care and skill of a winery that has interpreted the territory with passion for over half a century. The name recalls Pope Clement VII, a key figure of the Renaissance and a native of Florence, a city that is a symbol of culture and refinement, the same characteristics that can be found in every sip of this wine. After a long maturation in oak barrels and bottle ageing, the Clemente VII presents a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, sweet spices and delicate hints of vanilla and tobacco. In the mouth, it is velvety and enveloping, with balanced tannins and a freshness that guarantees longevity. Perfect with important meat dishes or mature cheeses, this Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is the highest expression of a timeless territory.
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.
