The grapes are harvested both manually and mechanically, ensuring accurate and timely selection. Once in the winery, the grapes are transferred to stainless steel tanks where they ferment at controlled temperatures, preserving the aromas and characteristics of the variety.

The period of skin contact lasts about two weeks, with constant monitoring of extraction to achieve the best expression of color, body, and tannins. Subsequently, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation, also in stainless steel, a crucial step to refine the structure and soften the organoleptic profile.

The process continues with aging for approximately 12 months in Slavonian oak barrels, a traditional material that enhances the wine’s complexity and elegance. Finally, the wine rests in the bottle to complete its maturation, developing a harmonious and persistent bouquet, ready to be enjoyed by Chianti Classico enthusiasts.

This meticulous process ensures a balanced, high-quality wine that encapsulates the essence of the Tuscan terroir.
