Prestige Chianti Colli Fiorentini
Sweet tobacco, red cherry and white pepper are nicely pushed forward in this supple, open-knit Chianti.
This opens with baking spice and dark-skinned berry aromas.
The bouquet is pleasant and lingering with scents of violet, red and black cherry, accompanied by light spicy notes. Harmonious and dry on the palate. Clean finish with lingering aftertaste.
Suitable for vegans.

Winemaking Notes
After crushing the grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks by selected yeasts. Fermentation temperature is contained within 26-28°C and the must is pumped over its skins twice a day to draw color and tannins from the skins. After 10-15 days the wine is separated from the skins. The wine is aged in large oak casks of 30-60 hectoliters for 6-8 months. Storage in stainless steel tanks until bottling and, after bottling, refined in bottle for at least 6-8 months before release.
