Chianti Classico Magnum 2020 – Fattoria San Giusto a Rentennano

Description

Chianti Classico San Giusto a Rentennano is poducted from Sangiovese 95% and Canaiolo 5% grapes hand-picked when perfectly ripe and fermented in enameled concrete and/or stainless steel tanks for about 14 days, during which time there is a variety of pumping over and punching down.
Racking is followed by the pressing of the pomace in a horizontal press, and the press is returned to its wine. Malolactic fermentation is aided by heating the room in which the wines rest.
Racked a few times (racking) it matures in barrels, oak tonneaux and barriques, for about 10-12 months. Once bottled, it ages 6 months before being marketed.
