Chioccioli
Terroir Wines In Harmony With Nature
Tuscany, Italy - Chianti
Thanks to a passionate and meticulous observation and respect of the interaction between the nature of the territory and the specific characteristics of the vineyards, today we know our plants as if they were our sons. We know every part of them, every characteristic, every facet and every talent.
With the aim of respecting and enhancing this extraordinary uniqueness, we harvest the grapes at different times.
It is a “parcel” harvest: only by dividing the harvesting periods according to the vineyard, the variety, the elevation and the exposure it is possible to capture the multiple peculiarities of our terroirs, managing to obtain more territorial and varieties identities, which will then characterize our products.
Hence the birth of the two lines, Chioccioli and Altadonna.
Ours is a rigorously handmade harvest: the collection takes place in small boxes carefully filled with a few bunches of grapes. Brought to the estate center, the grapes rest for at least one night in a cold storage until they reach 8°C to maintain their freshness and fragrance.
At this point they are ready to give their best and turn into the great wines we produce.
