Dievole Petrignano Chianti Classico
A vibrant Red wine with ripe plum, wild berry notes, and a velvety finish, perfect with pasta
Dievole `Petrignano` Chianti Classico DOCG from Chianti Classico, Italy is a certified organic, vegan, and vegetarian red (ruby) wine. This dry, still Sangiovese is crafted from a single vineyard with stony, limestone-rich soils, enhancing its distinctive minerality. Fermented in concrete vats with natural yeasts and aged for 13 months in large, untoasted French oak barrels, it offers a distinctive nose of ripe plums and wild berries, complemented by notes of tobacco, wet earth, and chalk. Full-bodied and juicy on the palate, it boasts refined tannins leading to a velvety finish. A versatile companion, it pairs beautifully with beef, pasta dishes, or mature cheeses.

Vinification
After picking and pressing, the must was fermented in 75-hectolitre cement vats with natural yeasts at a controlled maximum temperature between 26-28°C. After about two weeks of fermentation, the wine was racked into large, untoasted 41-hectolitre French oak barrels, where it remained for 13 months prior to bottling. A further 3 months of ageing in bottle occurred prior to release.
