By creating PURO, the first Chianti without added sulfites, we wished to demonstrate that even without sulfites, wine can age. The grapes need to be ripe, healthy and intact for this to happen.

This wine is produced and made from older vines than the Puro, using 100% Sangiovese vinified in stainless steel tanks and aged in oak for 12 months, with no addition of sulfites at any stage.

• Vineyard : Southern exposure – old vine
• Harvest : Hand-picked in crates by the end of September.
• Vinification : Soft destemming of the grapes. Natural fermentation and maceration with indigenous yeasts at controlled temperature in stainless steel for about 8 days. After malolactic fermentation, which starts relatively quickly due to the absence of sulphites, the wine is decanted and stored at a temperature of 10° C.
• Maturation : In stainless steel tanks for 6 months. The wine is then bottled to maintain its integrity and freshness.
• Grape varieties : Sangiovese
• Alcohol content : 13,5%
• Tasting notes : Intense purple colour. The nose is persistent, with notes of blackberries and redcurrants. On the palate the soft tannins underline the ripe fruit character of this wine. Final dry and of good persistence.
• Pairing : It goes well with roasts, wild game and cheese.
• Serving temperature : 16°-18°
