Description
A still red from Tuscany, 13% ABV, produced by Cantina Ripoli. Made with 100% Sangiovese, this Chianti Classico embodies the tradition and character of this terroir. Cantina Ripoli is located in Monsanto, in the municipality of Barberino Val d’Elsa/Tavernelle, in the Chianti Classico DOCG zone. The grapes are harvested by hand. The grapes are transported in crates to the cellar where they are immediately destemmed. Vinification takes place in concrete vats without temperature control systems. No selected yeasts or activators are used. Fermentation begins with a pied de cuve. Aging takes place in concrete vats. It has aromas of blood orange, cherry, and aromatic herbs. It possesses the exuberance of youth, the exuberance of old-fashioned Chianti, but over time it will develop the balance and finesse that are the hallmarks of Sangiovese in Chianti Classico.
