Chianti Superiore DOCG Organic, Castello del Trebbio
About the product
A Tuscan Chianti from the organic vineyards of the historic Castello del Trebbio. The grapes come from vines around 25 years old, farmed organically. The wine ferments with natural yeasts in stainless steel, then ages 6 months in large French oak casks and a further 6 months back in steel.
Chianti is built on Sangiovese: fresh acidity, firm tannins and aromas of red fruit and flowers. Superiore means stricter rules on yields and ageing than standard Chianti, and DOCG is the top tier of Italian wine classification.
