ANT CHIPEP
The Wine: The Pèppoli vineyards produce a Chianti Classico that is a blend made from Sangiovese grapes and complementary varieties; Peppoli is recognized and appreciated for the full expression of its fruit. A wine that represents the Chianti Classico territory and its historic grape variety with typical floral and fruity aromas.
Vinification: Each grape variety was harvested separately, destemmed, gently crushed and transferred into stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature between 26 and 28 °C (80 – 82 °F) to enhance aromatic compounds and preserve the fruity and floral notes of each grape variety. Maceration was performed with mechanical devices to best extract soft supple tannins over a period of 10 days for Sangiovese and two weeks for the complementary varieties. Once malolactic fermentation was completed, at the end of the winter season for all grape varieties, the wine was blended and transferred into barrels. Pèppoli aged in large Slavonian oak barrels for approximately 9 months and a small percentage was aged in stainless steel vats. Bottling was done in November 2023.

On the palate it’s vibrant, fresh with supple tannins and a finish that brings back aromatic notes perceived on the nose.
