Poggio alle Fate Chardonnay Toscana IGT
The Poggio alle Fate vineyard spans 3.2 hectares at an altitude of 680 meters above sea level, nestled in the heart of the hills of Radda in Chianti. T is highly mineral due to the presence of iron and manganese, contributing to the uniqueness of the wine produced.
Manual harvesting ensures the selection of the finest grapes, which are then stored in cold rooms at 6 °C for 48 hours. This is followed by gentle destemming and soft pressing of the grapes. The free-run juice ferments in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, and midway through alcoholic fermentation, it is transferred to 500-liter French oak tonneaux. Here, it completes alcoholic fermentation, malolactic fermentation, and undergoes aging for about a year on the lees, with weekly bâtonnage to enhance its complexity and structure.
After aging in wood, the wine rests in the bottle for a period ranging from 8 to 12 months, reaching its full expression. Poggio alle Fate represents the harmony between tradition and innovation, offering an unforgettable tasting experience. Perfect for those seeking elegant wines with great personality.
