Description
Istine’s Chianti Classico Vigna Cavarchione has been produced since 2013 from grapes sourced exclusively from the vineyard of the same name near the Borgo di Vertine in Gaiole in Chianti, planted between 2009 and 2010 and raised organically. Produced in only 3,000 bottles, it is a red of character that expresses the characteristics of the terroir with candor.
Fermentation is 15-20 days in cement tanks at controlled temperature of max 28°C, maceration about 45 days submerged cap in cement tanks.
It is aged for 12 months in 20- or 30-hectoliter Slavonian oak barrels, followed by about 1 year of bottle aging.
