Questo vino
Vineyard and terroir
The grapes come from the vineyards of Fattoria di Valiano, among the hills of Castelnuovo Berardenga in the Chianti Classico production area. Owned by the Piccini family since 1995, the vineyards have been certified organic under Equalitas since 2018.
Grapes
The 2024 blend is based on Chardonnay with a small proportion of Sauvignon Blanc.
Vinification
The grapes are usually harvested by hand between September and October and carefully selected at the winery. They undergo skin maceration in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks for 7–15 days, followed by gentle pressing and fermentation.
Ageing
The wine ages in oak barrels, using either Slavonian oak or 225- and 500-litre French oak barrels. After bottling, it matures for several further months in the estate’s cellar.
Tasting profile
Highly aromatic and expressive, with a smooth, refreshing palate.
Label / history
The name “Donna di Valiano” honours the women of the Piccini family and their decisive role in the company’s history. The wine is dedicated to women around the world.
