About this wine

Vinification

Produced without added sulfites from ripe, healthy and clean fruit. Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks. The absence of added sulfites allows malolactic fermentation to proceed very quickly.

Ageing

Aged in oak barrels for 12 months after malolactic fermentation.

Label / history

This was the first Chianti produced without added sulfites. The name “Puro” means “pure” in Italian and refers to this method of production.
