The Frescobaldi Castiglioni Chianti DOCG 2025 is a classic Chianti from Tuscany, produced at the historic Castiglioni estate in the Montespertoli area. The blend is based on Sangiovese, complemented by a small proportion of Merlot, and expresses the approachable, fruit-driven style of the region. The 2025 vintage initially benefited from generous rainfall between winter and spring, which ensured good water reserves in the soil. From late March to early April, budbreak commenced evenly, followed by harmonious vegetative growth and favourable conditions during flowering in the second half of May. A drier June slowed the vines’ growth, whilst the ripening phase began steadily between late July and early August.
Well-distributed rainfall throughout the rest of the year accompanied the grapes right through to harvest, supporting a balanced development of ripeness, freshness and concentration. The vintage’s healthy grapes form the basis for a Chianti DOCG that clearly reflects the character of the Castiglioni terroir. With an alcohol content of 12.5% in the 0.75-litre bottle, the Frescobaldi Castiglioni Chianti 2025 is a versatile Italian red wine, perfect for classic Mediterranean cuisine and casual moments of enjoyment. The combination of Sangiovese and Merlot, the traditional Montespertoli region and the Chianti DOCG protected designation of origin make it a quintessential example of Tuscan wine culture and a versatile companion for everyday life.
