New Arrivals/Restock

Il Palagio’s first venture into the Riserva category features its oldest Sangiovese vines from the best sites, which originally supplied fruit for the former tête de cuvée, “Sister Moon.” Due to the exceptional quality of the 2018 vintage, Riccardo Cotarella chose to rebrand this cuvée as a Riserva Chianti DOCG. La Duchessa is a cellar-worthy gem that showcases Chianti’s cooler climate in contrast to its more robust counterpart in Montalcino. The wine presents a harmonious blend of ripe sour cherry and dark forest berries, complemented by lovely notes of smoke and spice, along with hints of grapefruit. It offers juicy acidity on the palate, making it delicious and elegant with a lasting finish. This opulent and inviting wine stands out for its quality.
