Badia a Coltibuono Chianti Classico DOCG (2019)

The estate Chianti Classico is central in representing Badia a Coltibuono’s vision and relationship with its place and its history. Using the traditional blend of Sangiovese and complementary varieties, as well as propagating vines the traditional way – by massal selection – has always been the backbone of the wine. Modern techniques such as vinification by gravity are used to bring forth the best expression of the fruit, but traditional approaches, from indigenous yeast fermentation to aging in oak casks rather than barriques, are central to the authenticity of the wine. The winery’s long-established organic practices are also fundamental in the development of the truly unique character of the grapes.
