The best juice from Castello di Gabbiano
Only the finest juice is good enough for Castello di Gabbiano wines. That's why this winery goes to great lengths to grow perfect grapes.
With a heritage dating back to 1480, Cavaliere d'Oro invites you on a journey into the world of Italian wine. Located in the heart of Tuscany, Italy's Chianti region is iconic for its bold and robust Chianti and Chianti Classico wines. Cavaliere d'Oro draws on the treasures of the Chianti region, including Chianti, Chianti Classico, Chianti Classico Riserva, and the single-vineyard Chianti Classico Bellezza. These exceptional Chiantis are born in Castello di Gabbiano, the heart of Cavaliere d'Oro's heritage.
During the Middle Ages, a courageous Italian knight, Il Cavaliere, dedicated himself to protecting the castle and its vineyards. His code of honor embodied Gabbiano's philosophy that the best things in life deserve the greatest dedication—the estate's vineyards, Old World traditions, and the enjoyment of robust wines.
A lively, fruity wine with the necessary freshness
The winemaking techniques for this wine are designed to preserve its vibrant, fruity, and refreshing character. This wine is meant to be enjoyed young and fresh—within the first two years. On the nose, this DOCG offers hints of violets, cherry jam, black pepper and nutmeg, oak, tobacco, and licorice. A truly vibrant nose, these beautiful flavors continue on the palate. The slightly dry taste is delicate with nuances of black fruit, herbs, and vanilla. This Gabbiano Chianti DOCG has good structure.
