1993 I Sodi di S. Niccolò Castellare di Castellina - Tuscany - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

Unlike generic or commercial brands, we are faced with an iconic and cult label in the Italian wine scene. Born from the vision of Paolo Panerai and winemaker Maurizio Castelli (with the historical consultancy of Émile Peynaud), I Sodi di S. Niccolò is the flagship wine of Castellare di Castellina.

It represents one of the very first and most prestigious "Super Tuscans" with a strictly indigenous vocation: rather than using international grape varieties (such as Cabernet or Merlot), Castellare focused on the marriage of the local Sangiovese clone (Sangioveto) with a small percentage of Malvasia Nera, demonstrating the extraordinary aging potential of traditional Chianti varieties.

The bottles were stored in a temperature-controlled cellar, with packaging appropriate to the importance of the bottles.
