{"product_id":"poggerino-chianti-classico","title":"Poggerino Chianti Classico 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThese new releases from Poggerino are terrific. Piero Lanza makes wines of notable character that capture all the finesse of Radda. Over the last decade or so, quality has grown in dramatic fashion, driven by much gentler winemaking than in the past. The Chianti Classicos are vinified in cement and aged in either cask or cement. I find a purity in these wines that is incredibly distinctive. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Antonio Galloni, Vinous\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the wine:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePOGGERINO Chianti Classico 2023\u003cbr\u003e100% SANGIOVESE\u003cbr\u003eDenomination: Chianti Classico D.O.C.G.\u003cbr\u003eGrape variety: 100% Sangiovese\u003cbr\u003eProduction area: Radda in Chianti\u003cbr\u003eVineyard density: 5000\/ha\u003cbr\u003eTraining system: Bilateral cordon\/guyot\u003cbr\u003eHarvest: Manual from the last week of September \/ first ten days of October\u003cbr\u003eVineyard age: From 2004 to 1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinification and ageing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter careful selection in the vineyard, the grapes are destemmed and pressed. The alcoholic fermentation begins without the addition of selected yeasts and proceeds at 28°\/30°C. The entire vinification and maceration process takes place in concrete tanks for about 35 days with manual pumping over and punching down. In December, the new wine is decanted into 20\/25hl Slavonian oak barrels and 4\/5hl French oak tonneaux where malolactic fermentation takes place. After 12 months of refinement, the wine is blended and bottled the following spring. The wine is aged for a minimum of 8 months before being sold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensory profile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrilliant ruby red colour.
