WINEMAKER NOTES | Gabriele and Valeria purchased the farm, located in Casavecchia alla Piazza on the hills of Chianti Classico in 1988. Since the beginning they farmed organically as they wanted to make their wine in a natural environment. From selected Sangiovese grapes grown in limestone and clay soil from the Casavecchia, Sicelle and Sicellino vineyards. Vinification in steel and cement vats, skins rest for at least 20 days with pump-overs and punch-down. Aged in small/medium oak barrels for about 1 year, blended in cement vats and bottles then aged for at least 3 months before release.
TASTING NOTES | Notes of cherries, ripe stewed fruits, spices, and a hint of tobacco. Nice acidity and depth with beautiful balance.
PAIRING NOTES | Italian cuisine, pastas, steak, sausage, charcuterie
