A unique Estate in a land extraordinarily suitable for grape growing. A natural amphitheatre to capture the light and warmth of the sun.

The story of this wine begins in the vineyard, where the altitude, the exposure and the incline all contributed to the elegance and expressiveness of the grapes. Having been carefully selected and harvested by hand, they were fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The “cap” that formed on the surface was broken frequently to ensure perfect polyphenolic extraction, creating the typical colour and structure of a Chianti Classico Riserva. The lengthy period spent ageing in wood certainly contributed to the structural intensity of this wine, finished with a further a period in the bottle.

In the heart of the Chianti Classico region, in a natural amphitheatre facing south-west with exceptional pedoclimatic conditions for unique and high-quality results, this Chianti Classico Riserva is born. We are in Gaiole in Chianti, in the vineyards of the Tenuta Perano, located 500 m above sea level, where the Sangiovese is particularly elegant and brimming with personality. Made from carefully hand-selected grapes, it is aged in oak barrels for 24 months.
