VIGNOLE Crespine Gran Selezione Chianti Classico DOCG 2013

Vignole Crespine Chianti Classico Gran Selezione is the result of the best selection of Sangiovese grapes harvested in early October. All the grapes are produced in the estate vineyards, handpicked and fermented in tonneaux, with maceration on the skins for 15 days. The malolactic fermentation and the ageing for more than 30 months takes place in small barrels (225 litre “barriques”). This wine is bottled and aged for a minimum of six months in bottle before release. The color is extremely intense, and the nose reveals spicy aromas and hints black cherries and blackberries. It is velvety, full-bodied and warm. The palate shows well-integrated tannins and a sweet aftertaste. It has a long, satisfying finish. Alc.: 15%
