Vignole CampiCaia Chianti Classico Riserva
For the Riserva the Nistri’s blend Sangiovese with 15% Cabernet for added structure and age-worthiness. Aged for an extended period in different oak before blending and ageing in bottle, the wine has a darker fruit profile than the standard Classico, with cherry, dark fruits of the forest, spice and subtle truffle and spicy notes. Very full and rich with great ageing potential – definitely better after a decant.

Tenuta Vignole
Vignole has been in the Nistri family since 1970 and today is run by brothers Massimo and Fabrizio Nistri. Based in Panzano in Chianti they farm 21hA organically (as do nearly all producers in Panzano by mutual agreement) without certification. This is prime Chianti Classico land lying between 280-320M asl with hillside vines producing low yielding ripe grapes. The house style is full and rich Chianti Classicos with intense, aromatic profiles.
