NITTARDI CHIANTI CLASSICO CASANUOVA DI NITTARDI 22

Nittardi is an organic boutique winery situated in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, on the boundary between the provinces of Siena and Florence. Robert Parker, James Suckling, Decanter and Gambero Rosso have all given Nittardi the highest praise for its wines. As homage to the artist Michelangelo Buonarroti, whom the property belonged in the 16th century, a unique combination of art and wine is still cultivated here today.

Casanuova di Nittardi Chianti Classico is a pure Sangiovese from the single vineyard “Vigna Doghessa” in the municipality of Castellina in Chianti. The vineyard lies on a south-east facing hill at 450 meters above sea level and has a soil full of schist stones, which engenders the wine with a fine minerality and pleasant freshness.

For the 2020 vintage and anniversary edition, a competition was announced and six artists have emerged as victors. Each case contains a bottle graced with a label from each artist.
