Castagnoli Chianti Classico

Sangiovese, long misunderstood and blended with other grape varieties, has only been vinified on its own for a few decades. The greatness and potential of Sangiovese is fascinating. Similarly to Pinot Noir, it isn't easy to grow and vinify, and well is incredibly sensitive to the location where it is grown. Although the vineyards at Castagnoli are very close together, the fruit that they produce can show remarkable differences. Therefore, we divided our eleven hectares of vineyards into 19 parcels, which we harvest, ferment, and vinify separately. Each vintage, allows us to create a Chianti Classico that best represents Castagnoli's land and the year it was produced.

100% Sangiovese, carefully blended from the different crus of Castagnoli. Each year we analyze each parcel's fruit to create a balanced, complex Chianti Classico that can be enjoyed immediately and offers a pleasant drinkability.
