Winemaking

in order to obtain the Chianti Piantaferro the traditional method has been chosen as vinification technique of the Sangiovese grapes, consisting of a maceration and fermentation process at a controlled temperature of 24-26° C, daily pumpings over a period of 4 to 6 days depending on the vintage, followed by two long replacements for the following 3-4 day, continued by grape draining and pressing. Once concluded the phases of alcoholic and then malo-lactic fermentation autumnal decanting rites can be performed.

Storage and ageing

hould be stored in a dry dark place at a temperature of 10-14°C. The structure and the alcoholic content of this wine, linked to the elegance of the wood, can provide for a 4 to 5 years aging.

Bouquet

intriguing red fruit and cherry hints, followed by elegant sensations of tea and spices, especially black pepper. The perfume can be defined as warm, complex and elegant.
