Chianti
COMPANY OBJECTIVE: To produce an easy drinking wine with a true Chianti character. A simple everyday wine to accompany a wide range of food.
VINEYARDS: The Sangiovese and Canaiolo grapes come from various vineyards of the estate, from the plants around 30 years old to the recently planted sections. The grapes are harvested largely by machine.
WINE CELLAR: Mature grapes with full flavour were selected for this wine. The grapes were cooled for approximately one day in steel 20,000L cylinders and then a controlled process of fermentation was followed to retain the delicate fruity perfume and freshness. The maceration was reasonably short lasting approximately 5 days. The wine has remained in steel until it is bottled in order to conserve the maximum flavour. The malolactic fermentation finished in spring. The wine has been filtered before it was bottled.
TECHNICAL JUDGMENT: The red color with violet reflexes demonstrates its integrity and the good maturation of the grapes; to the nose, the aroma of the harvest is recalled with a fresh perfume and hints of raspberry; in the mouth, soft, with good acidity.
