Oro del Cedro - vendemmia tardiva 2016


The first Chianti Riserva D.O.C.G. solfite free
100% Sangiovese
After the realization of PURO, the first Chianti without added sulfites, we wanted to demonstrate that even without sulfites wine can age. It is important that the grapes are ripe, healthy and pristine. This wine is made from 100% Sangiovese vinified in stainless steel and aged in oak for 12 months, without any addition of sulfites.
Harvest: Manual in small cases before mid October.
Vinification: Soft destemming of the grapes. Spontaneous fermentation and maceration in stainless steel at a controlled temperature for about 10 days with numerous pumpovers and delestages in order to extract the softer tanins. After the malo-lactic fermentation, that occurs quickly since there are no sulfites, the wine is decanted and stored at a temperature of 10° C.
Maturation: In french oak barriques for 12 months.
Ageing capacity: 6-8 years.
Sensory characteristics: The wine opens to a thick purple color andl aomas of moreno cherry syrup. In the mouth it is soft and fruity with evident notes of vanilla and cherry. Dry and long finish.
Serving suggestions: It pairs nicly with roasts, wild game and cheeses.
Serving temperature: 16-18° C.
Totale: € 16,00
