Buriano is another of the historical grape production areas.The exposure and typical Chianti soil, with alberese and limestone veins, make it a particularly suitable area for long and complex maturation in the vineyard. Luminosity, ventilation and its high altitude position complete its great vocation as befits the Gran Cru.
Buriano is a historic Bordeaux-style blended wine that we have been producing at Rocca di Castagnoli since 1985 and is made on the high side of the Stielle vineyard, to which some 2.2 hectares of Cabernet Sauvignon are dedicated.
The Cabernet Sauvignon di Buriano maintains a character that combines the roundness and fullness, typical of Bordeaux blends, with the minerality and freshness of the Chianti terrior.
