Winery & Vintage Info

Chianti Classico is the cornerstone of the estate’s production. The vineyards are located in Castelnuovo Berardenga, in the southeastern part of the Chianti Classico appellation, to the southeast of Siena. Almost exclusively with a southwestern exposure, they sprawl across ventilated slopes at an altitude ranging from 320-420 meters above sea level. Geologically, the terrains are mixed: in the higher parts the soil is predominantly rock quartz and calcareous alberese mixed with alluvial pebbles; stratiform sandstone and loam characterise the vineyards on the edge of the Colli Senesi in the direction of the Crete Senesi. First vintage 1967.

Grown in the northeast of Siena, in the commune of Castelnuovo Berardenga, on the southern border of the Chianti Classico zone. About 5.400 vines per hectare.
Bilateral cordon training system and simple Guyot with a maximum of 5-8 buds per vine.

Staggered harvest due to different altitudes of the vineyards, within the first three weeks of October.

After the quality-selected clusters are de-stemmed and pressed, the must is fermented and macerated in stainless steel for 12-15 days at 28°C and 30°C, with programmed punchdowns and daily pump-overs. In March-April, the new wine goes into medium-size Slavonian oak barrels, and a small percentage into twice and thrice used oak barrels; after 12 months of maturation, the final blend is assembled, bottled, and ages in glass a minimum of 3 months.
