STRADINA

Appellation: Chianti Colli Senesi DOCG Grapes: 100% Sangiovese Vineyard: Setteprode Soil: Medium-textured and rich in skeleton Altitude: 260 meters above sea level Yield Per Hectare: 60 quintals Age Of Vines: 15 years Harvest: Manual, mid/late October Vinification: The grapes are destemmed and lightly crushed, after which the crush is collected in cement tanks.
For 2 days the product remains in refrigeration so as to extract the first aromatic precursors.
Then, raising the temperature, fermentation begins, which will take place around 25°C.
After about 7 days, racking takes place and there is separation of the skins from the must and fermentation ends. Maturation: At the end of fermentation the wine is racked to separate the heavier lees and spontaneous malolactic fermentation follows.
After the 3rd racking it is kept on its fine lees where, with weekly stirring, it will remain for 6 months. Notes: On the label detail of: T. Signorini – Stradina di Settignano – 1885 from the collection of E. Angiolini
