Capannino 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Docg Bio
Capannino 2019 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione DOCG Bibbiano is made from pure Sangiovese grosso grown, on soil with the presence of schistose-calcareous rock with blue rainwater clay, in the vineyard of Capannino, near Monteriggioni, according to an organic regime.
The grapes were harvested at the beginning of October, by hand. The wine is fermented in cement vats for 33 days and is first aged for 24 months between cement and French and Slavonian oak barrels and then for 6 months in the bottle.
The end result is a broad-bodied, structured and rightly elaborated wine. It is ample both on the nose and palate with decisive and tasty hints; a wine of character with a lingering aftertaste that is at the same time elegant and flavoursome. A remarkable softness acts as a glue between its decisive structure and a marked savouriness.
