Description

This great Chianti Classico is made from 95% Sangiovese with 5% indigenous grapes, farmed organically, and following a non-interventionist approach. It's fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged for 8 months in 10 hectoliter Slavonian oak barrels - big, neutral barrels. Only 3000 bottles produced for the current vintage.

Grapes are all from the Istine vineyard which was planted in 2002 at 5000 vines per hectare in limestone-rich soil. 3.78 hectares are planted to Sangiovese and other indigenous varieties for Chianti Classico. The vineyard faces North West and sits at an altitude of 450 to 520 meters. It is in the heart of the historic Chianti zone between Castellina and Radda on a hilltop surrounded by woods.
