On the nose, this Riserva offers bright and pleasant freshness with distinct aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherries and red currants. The palate is silky and soft, showcasing mature and refined tannins that provide structure without heaviness.

Winemaker's Background:

The Gaslini Alberti family oversees Badia di Morrona, an estate deeply rooted in two of Italy’s premier wine regions: Tuscany and Piedmont. In Tuscany, the estate commands 110 hectares of Sangiovese vineyards at the heart of Terre di Pisa, crafting wines that honor the legacy of Chianti’s noble terroir. The family’s philosophy centers around respecting the land while producing wines of purity and distinction. Beyond Tuscany, the family also cultivates Barbera and Pinot Noir at their organic Podere dei Bricchi Astigiani estate in Piedmont, further showcasing their wide-ranging passion for Italian viticulture.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve at 16-18°C in a wide Bordeaux glass to enhance its aromatic profile and textural elegance. Ideal pairings include beef braised in beer, spaghetti puttanesca, penne arrabbiata, and classic tomato-based pasta dishes. The wine also pairs beautifully with cured meats, red meats, and game, making it a versatile companion at the table.

The 2020 Badia di Morrona I Sodi del Paretaio Riserva is a poised and authentic representation of Sangiovese, offering both immediate pleasure and aging potential—a timeless tribute to the Chianti tradition.
