Sangiovese
Red wine

Something different. 100% Sangiovese from a vineyard in Gaiole
in Chianti, 700 m above sea level. The grapes are picked late to get
maximum ripeness from this beautiful high-lying vineyard. Fermented
in cement tanks with 20% whole bunches. The very long maceration
of 5 months gives this wine a wonderful fruit character, which
differentiates it from the more classic styles.
FERMENTATION in cement and open bins
MACERATION 5 months in cement
AGEING 12 months cement
BOTTLED in 750 ml Burgundy bottle and some Magnums
