Castello di Albola<br />
Castello di Albola is located in Radda in Chianti, an atmospheric medieval<br />
village in the high, central part of the Chianti Classico region, midway between<br />
the Renaissance cities of Florence and Siena. <strong>St</strong>eeped in history, Castello di<br />
Albola can trace its ownership back to the 12th century and has passed through<br />
the hands of some most important and influential Tuscan noble families. They<br />
capture the essence of the Sangiovese variety with its often subtle and austere<br />
tones, capable of delighting those who care to unlock its fascinating secrets.<br />
The Chianti Classico is Castello di Albola’s signature wine. It is expressive of<br />
both the Albola estate and Radda’s very distinct terroir: cool and high altitude,<br />
at the limit of where Sangiovese will ripen fully. The wine is very perfumed and<br />
has classic Sangiovese flavours of violets and red cherries.<br />
