Are we ready for some Chianti from maybe the greatest of all time?
We all have our favorites, even if there are many other deserving producers. But Castellare was one of the first of the “modern” estates in Chianti, established in the 1970s when Chianti and even Italy itself were becoming wines with freshness when they were known for funk, earth and cheap prices.
Castellare arose from four estates, and they brought in some of the brightest minds of the time, not just Emile Peynaud, the professor of Bordeaux, but also Attilio Scienza of the University of Florence. They implemented the first true scientific selection of Sangiovese clones, and introduced new French barriques, and pretty much started crushing it.
Long story short? We have an emotional relationship with Castellare...and they are indeed the 🐐 of Chianti!
If Italian wine is your thing, this is a do not miss type of situation.
I know what I'm drinking tonight!
