An authentic, handcrafted red wine produced by the Piemaggio estate in the Castellina sub-zone of Chianti Classico, Tuscany. This flagship bottling is highly regarded for its textbook, traditional character that balances rich fruit with distinct rustic earthiness.
Aromas: Prominent scents of red cherry, dark plum, licorice, tobacco leaf, and subtle cedar.
Palate: Plump, juicy, and forward. It features flavors of ripe red raspberry, black cherry extract, dried roses, star anise, and a distinct touch of warm terra-cotta earth.
Structure: Framed by polished, velvety tannins and Chianti Classico's signature tangy, vibrant acidity.
Grape Composition: A traditional blend featuring 90% Sangiovese supplemented by 10% Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo, and Colorino.
Terroir & Vineyards: Grown at altitudes between 380 and 480 meters in galestro (shale) and alberese (limestone) soils. Thick surrounding forests and steady breezes protect the grapes from severe drought and help maintain fresh acidity.
Vinification: Made using organic practices and native yeasts. The wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel during a 3.5-week maceration period.
Aging: Matured for roughly two years in a combination of concrete tanks and large, neutral Slavonian oak casks, ensuring minimal wood interference.
Food Pairings: Thanks to its food-friendly acidity and firm texture, this wine pairs exceptionally well with:
Traditional Tuscan cold cuts and semi-dried cheeses
Rich tomato-based pasta dishes
Roasted meats, pork, or grilled beef
