Herbal & Delicate

The vineyards of Fattoria di Sammontana are located along the hills that border the Arno River, 20km to the south west of Florence. Today, the family - now in its fourth generation - runs the farm according to organic and biodynamic practices, with the intent to fully preserve and sustain the traditions and winemaking history of the land.

This Chianti is made from Sammontana's best and oldest Sangiovese vines, planted around 40 years ago. The grapes are destemmed and macerated in large concrete vats where for about 20 days. The wine is then pressed and transferred to old 225L barrels where it stays on its fine lees for roughly one year. Bottled with a tiny sulphite addition, unfined and unfiltered.

It has aromas of sour cherry and black olives on the nose, with a hint of mediterranean herbs. On the palate the tannis are soft yet a bit rustic.

Perfect to pair with lamb or other game, pizza and tomato-based dishes - think Italian fare!

The property and its 12th century Romanesque church, were once the property of the Medici family.
