CHIANTI CLASSICO DOCG ROCCIALTA
REGION OF ORIGIN: Toscana
WINEMAKING: After crushing, grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks by selected yeasts. Fermentation temperature is contained within 26-28°C and the must is pumped over its skins twice a day to draw colouring substances and tannins from the skins. After 10-15 days, the wine is separated from the dregs to prevent solubilisation of bitter tannins.
AGEING: Ageing in big oak casks of 30/60 Hl for 6-8 months. Storage in stainless steel tanks until bottling and, after bottling, refining in bottle for at least 6 months.
ALC: 13,5% by Vol.
STORAGE: At cellar’s temperature (15-18°C/59-64°F).
SERVING TEMPERATURE:18/20°C
MATCHING: Savoury first courses, grilled meats and game
WINEMAKER’S NOTE: Deep ruby red colour. The fragrant bouquet is dominated by violet, cherry and blackberry. On the palate, the wine is harmonious and dry; the soft tannins and moderate acidity contribute to the structure of this Tuscan treasure.
