In the beautiful olive and cypress-studded countryside between Florence and Siena lay the quaint hilltop villages of the Chianti Classico region. The wine of the same name is produced exclusively in this charming and beautiful area. Grapes: Sangiovese 90%, Canaiolo 10%. Vinification: maceration of the skins in the must and fermentation at controlled low temperature. Aging: after the final blend is assembled, the wine is aged for six months or longer in oak casks. Finishing: the wine is bottle during the second year, then bottle aged in our temperature controlled cellars for 4/6 months before release.
