Medium-textured, predominantly calcareous marl breakdown of alberese and galestro strata, with abundant gravel-pebble mixture. Some extension into silt-and sand-rich alluvial soils.

This is where tradition combines with advanced technology. The 18th century cellars, carved out of rugged limestone, are extensive. You’ll be fascinated by the rows of red stained oak barrels and halls of vast steel vats, temperature controlled for fermentation. You’ll see teams of experts tasting, blending, balancing to produce the finest Chianti Classico. Their passion created in 1968 the first Supertuscan, our renowned Vigorello.

Chianti Classico DOCG 2022

2022 benefited from favorable climatic conditions. The absence of spring frosts and hail events preserved the vine buds. The summer was characterized by consistent temperatures without excessive peaks, allowing the vines to adapt well. Spring rains ensured a good water reserve for the drier months, facilitating grape development. The mid- August rains helped maintain milder temperatures and ensured an additional water reserve for the optimal ripening of the grapes. The health status of the grape clusters was excellent thanks to the warm climate and moderate humidity. Harvest began slightly earlier, around September 10th, and concluded after about a month. 2022 Chianti Classico wines show an overall balance with moderate acidity and soft, ripe tannins.

The 2021 vintage was characterized by a mild and dry winter. The germination was consequently brought forward to the end of March for the earliest varieties and for the best exposed vineyards. On the nights of April 8 and 9, the temperature dropped a few degrees below zero, significantly reducing production. Thankfully the spring was rainy, allowing the plants to tolerate a long, hot summer. Production was poor but, as often happens, the small quantity corresponds to an excellent quality.

Wine Spectator

A mild winter 2020 made a very early bud breaking end of March. Unfortunately the night of March 25th the temperatures dropped down below 0 and the sangiovese was strongly affected with a dramatic reduction of the yield. The spring was nice with a good amount of rain and several sunny days. The summer was great, warm but without many heat waves. The fruit reached a perfect ripening soon.
