Rocca delle Macìe Famiglia Zingarelli Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG

Rocca delle Macìe was established in 1973, when Italo Zingarelli, a film-maker, producer and director, decided to realize his lifelong dream by acquiring the “Le Macìe” estate, in order to create a winery in the heart of the Chianti Classico zone and to produce wines that, thanks to their balance between the tannic structure, fruit and pleasantness, can be appreciated by young people and wines that are able to give over the years a great evolution.

The “Zingarelli Family” is the Classic Chianti of Rocca delle Macie which well represents the characteristics of this great wine area according to the interpretation of a winery in which tradition and experience blend with modern techniques.
This Chianti Classico Riserva is an harmonious blend of three vines mixed in different percentages, where Sangiovese has a majority, with good tannins and a rich and persistent finish.

This particular label and vintage celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Rocca delle Macìe, founded in 1973 by Italo Zingarelli.
