Poggiotondo Organic Chianti from Chianti, Italy, is a vibrant and delicious Red still dry wine crafted from Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Colorino, and Trebbiano grapes. Fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in concrete tanks and aged in untoasted oak casks, it offers enticing aromas of dried oregano, dark and red cherries. The palate reveals ripe cherries, balanced by grainy tannins and a fresh, vibrant acidity, leading to a silky, mineral finish. This certified organic wine pairs wonderfully with a variety of Italian dishes and mature cheeses.

Vinification

Once at the winery, the grapes were carefully selected before being destemmed and gently crushed. They were then transferred to concrete tanks where spontaneous fermentation took place with indigenous yeasts for around two weeks, followed by malolactic fermentation . After fermentation was complete, the skins were gently pressed in a pneumatic press to extract the juice and then transferred to a combination of cement tanks and large untoasted oak casks to age.
