Casalvento

Casalvento produces wines from Toscana in central Italy, drawing on the region's classic varieties and winemaking traditions. The winery's portfolio centers on Sangiovese, the backbone of Tuscan reds, expressed across multiple bottlings: a straightforward Sangiovese, a Gran Selezione Chianti Classico built entirely from the variety, and a Chianti Riserva that blends Sangiovese with Cannonau, Malvasia, and Merlot. The Chianti Riserva, rated 89.7 by prestige critics including Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast, represents the winery's most acclaimed offering. The Gran Selezione Chianti Classico, a pure Sangiovese expression rated 87.3, reflects the varietal's capacity for structure and aging potential in the Chianti zone. These wines anchor a range that demonstrates the winery's focus on Tuscan typicity and the nuanced character that emerges from Sangiovese across different terroirs and blending approaches.
