Chianti Classico DOCG Castellare di Castellina

Chianti Classio Castellare by Castellina is a very traditional Chianti Classico as the varieties used are all exclusively from Tuscany. The hand-harvested grapes are immediately brought to the winery to be de-stemmed and pressed. The fermentation with maceration are carried out in temperature controlled steel tanks for about 15-20 days at 28°C. Afterwards the wine is separated from the skins and left to age in barriques and 5-hl barrels for 7 months, while the wine gets softer and gains all the incredible aromas of the wood. The next steps are the blending of the barrels and barriques, light clarification and bottling. The Chianti Classico Castellare by Castellina rests in the bottle for 6 months before being released.
