Pagliarese is a historic estate with deep roots in Chianti Classico, once a revered name before going quiet for decades. Now revitalized under the same family behind Fèlsina, the estate produces wines that capture the rustic elegance of traditional Sangiovese. The Riserva takes things a step further than the normale, with longer aging and more structure, making it a true throwback to classic Tuscan winemaking.

The 2019 vintage is beautifully expressive, with bright cherry, wild raspberry, and hints of dried roses and tobacco. The palate is firm yet refined, with dusty tannins and a core of savory earthiness that lingers through the finish. Compared to its younger sibling, this Riserva has more depth, polish, and the ability to age gracefully—showing the influence of an outstanding vintage marked by balance and concentration.

Perfect alongside bistecca alla fiorentina, aged pecorino, or a rich tomato-based pasta, this is Chianti Classico at its most authentic. It’s drinking well now but will reward patience, evolving into something even more complex over the next decade.
