Francesco Ricasoli, the likeable and ambitious owner of Castello di Brolio, brings out the elegance and finesse as well as a marvellous depth of fruit in his wines. Rocca Guicciarda Riserva is a soft, silky wine. Dark ruby in colour, it has a rich, open bouquet of cherry and pomegranate with a fine almond and tobacco note. A wine whose juiciness makes it a pleasure to drink early on, but whose flavour complexity increases enormously as it matures. SUPERIORE.DE

"A calm, balanced and seductive Riserva with flavours of cherries, dried herbs and dried flowers. It is medium-bodied with fine tannins. Juicy and charming, with a velvety core of juicy cherries and berries in the middle and a flavourful finish." James Suckling

"The 2021 Chianti Classico Riserva Rocca Guicciarda, with its artfully designed label and cobalt blue background, has a hint of campfire or embers behind ripe aromas of dark cherries and blackberries. There are also hints of dark chocolate, grilled rosemary and baked plum in this dark flavour profile. There is also a salty minerality on the finish." Wine Advocate
