The vineyards are rooted in clay and calcareous soils, which impart a mineral character to the wine. After manual harvest, the grapes undergo fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by extended maceration to enhance color and flavor extraction. \n\nAging takes place for at least one year in a combination of French and Slavonian oak barrels, followed by additional aging in stainless steel, cement vats, and the bottle. This meticulous process ensures a robust, complex, and age-worthy wine with an alcohol content of 13.5%.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\nThe Carpineto Chianti Classico Riserva delivers a sensory delight from start to finish.
