Terziere di Tramontano Chianti Classico DOCG

Vineyard and terroir

The wine comes from the hills of Radda in Chianti, one of the three historic municipalities of the medieval Chianti League. Radda's colder conditions make Sangiovese cultivation particularly demanding but give the resulting Chianti Classico an elegant, fresh profile with a distinct mineral influence.
