Chianti DOCG Banfi

Banfi Chianti DOCG is produced in the Chianti region, located in Tuscany between the cities of Florence and Siena. This area is characterized by a hilly landscape, with clay and limestone soils that give the wine its distinctive characteristics. The vineyards from which Chianti Banfi comes are located at an altitude between 150 and 400 meters above sea level, enjoying a Mediterranean climate with significant temperature swings between day and night. These conditions favor optimal ripening of the Sangiovese grape, which forms the basis of this wine, along with other traditional varieties such as Canaiolo and Merlot. The production process of Chianti Banfi begins with manual harvesting of the grapes, followed by crushing and fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine is aged in oak barrels of various sizes for a period of at least 12 months, imparting complexity and structure to the wine. Chianti Banfi is a wine that faithfully reflects the terroir from which it comes, thanks to the soil characteristics and climate that influence the growth of the grapes and their development into wine.
