Harvest:
By hand in the first half of October
Composition of Vines:
Sangiovese 90% - Canaiolo 10%
Vinification:
The wine-making is obtained through select fermentation carried out in cement vats at unregulated temperatures, with frequent reassemblage and pressage (in order to extract the coloring elements). The steeping lasts between 8-10 days. In the month of November a secondary fermentation has been obtained adding to the new wines more chosen grapes dried on special racks. This process enhances the evolution and the pleasantness of the finished wine ( according to the strict Chianti regulations).
Aging and Refining:
The ageing process is realised in barrels made from Slavonia oak, of medium capacity for at least 12 months followed by a period of refinement in the bottle for, at least, 2 months.
