Old-fashioned farming, indigenous yeast fermentations, aging in neutral old oak—these Sangiovese-based Chianti Classico and Riserva age beautifully and reward patience.

Princess Coralia Pignatelli della Leonessa has run Castell'in Villa for decades from the southeastern reaches of the appellation — Castelnuovo Berardenga — where the Sangiovese grows longer legs than almost anywhere else in Chianti. This isn't a wine to crack open the evening it arrives: Castell'in Villa's Riserva is built for 20 or more years of cellaring, and the 2008 has been developing slowly into something remarkable. It's at a beautiful drinking window now — the tannins have integrated, the savory, earthy complexity has bloomed, but the structure that defines this estate is still very much present. If you believe that great Chianti can age like great Burgundy or Barolo, Castell'in Villa is your proof.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acker Merrall \u0026 Condit [AC]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43848676606009,"sku":"NYC-[PVT]-PVT-ACK09082024 Wk36-092724-CVCCR2008-ROW4-BOX 6","price":124.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Castellin-Villa-Chianti-Classico-Riserva-2008-Red-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1779591476"},{"product_id":"castell-in-villa-santacroce-toscana-rosso-2016-750ml","title":"Castell'in Villa, Santacroce Toscana Rosso, 2016","description":"\u003cp\u003eBuilt for the long haul—this 2016 spent eight years in large oak casks.
