Riecine La Gioia 2003, crafted in Italy’s Tuscany, is a pure Sangiovese from a balanced vintage, sourced from the estate’s clay and limestone terroir in Chianti Classico. The bouquet reveals evolved red cherry, cassis, and plum, with notes of leather, tobacco, and spice, accented by hints of violet and minerality. The palate is full-bodied and harmonious, with velvety tannins and balanced acidity supporting the mature fruit. Aged in French oak, this wine reflects Riecine’s organic winemaking, delivering a long, refined finish with notable aging potential. Perfect for pairing with roasted beef, grilled game, or aged cheeses, it is a collector’s treasure, embodying Chianti’s iconic terroir and offering a sophisticated drinking experience for enthusiasts seeking a mature Sangiovese. Its depth and elegance make it a standout from the 2003 vintage.
