Vinification and aging: After a careful and precise selection of the grape clusters, the manually harvested grapes are de-stemmed and gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats where maceration lasts about 18/20 days at a controlled temperature of 28/30° C. Shortly after alcoholic fermentation, the wine is transferred into barrels of 42hl where malolactic fermentation takes place. The estate bottled wine then remains stored in the cellar for further refinement.
Tasting notes: Intense ruby red color. The nose shows fruity and floral notes together with spices and incense. Soft, elegant and well structured. Freshness, complexity, graceful and silky tannins are the result of a careful selection of sangiovese grapes growing on Alberese and Galestro soils. This wine is vibrant and has a long and persistent aftertaste. It is an excellent expression of Mocenni’s terroir and of Chianti Classico Riserva.
