This galestro-rich soil\u003c\/strong\u003e and favorable climate contribute to the exceptional quality of the Sangiovese grapes grown here. The grapes are vinified in purity, with careful aging that involves moderate use of wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt harvest time, the grapes are carefully selected and fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Skin contact lasts 3 to 4 weeks, with constant monitoring of extraction. Subsequently, malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel, followed by aging for about 14 months: half of the wine matures in 34-hectoliter Slavonian oak barrels, while the other half rests in French oak tonneaux. The final stage of aging takes place in the bottle for approximately 18 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDENOMINATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChianti Classico DOCG Gran Selezione\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGRAPES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% Sangiovese\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright ruby red with garnet reflections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose\u003c\/strong\u003e: Intense and elegant with floral notes of lily and a good concentration of ripe red fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bold, full-bodied palate with elegant tannins.
