Vendemmia Chianti Classico DOCG is Dievole’s very own take on the classic Chianti Classico genre and consists of 80 per cent Sangiovese and 20 per cent red autoctone grapes. The berries are harvested by hand at the end of September and early October.
During the ageing process, 80 per cent of the wine is aged in Slavonian oak barrels and the other 20 per cent is aged in old French oak barriques for one year. These are then married in-bottle were the wine is aged for a further six months before being released on the market.
On nosing, the wine carries forward harmonious notes of cherry, blackberry, black tea and white pepper and is a perfect accompaniment to a variety of meat and cheese platters.
