Vineyards
Tuscan hills of the delimited Chianti D.O.C.G. zone. The soil is calcareous, with a mixture of sand and clay.
Winemaking

fermentation. The wine then undergoes malolactic fermentation and is then aged for 4 to 5 months in
barriques followed by extended bottle aging. The “Superiore” designation signifies stricter government
regulations regarding production and aging requirements than Chianti.
