About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from vineyards in Bolgheri with limestone-clay soils and stony deposits. Favourable weather conditions allow the grapes to ripen healthy and juicy.

Vinification

After harvest, the grapes are pressed and vinified in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.

Tasting profile

Balanced and rounded.

Label / history

The Chiantigiane label brings together several small wineries that pooled their resources. The company has 2,460 ha of vineyards, with cellars in the provinces of Florence, Siena and Pistoia, and continues to use traditional winemaking methods.
