I Castagni Bolgheri Rosso Superiore DOC

Description :

I Castagni is a single vineyard with "superior" character. The soil composition is rich in clay, which facilitates slower ripening of the grapes. The vines have been planted at 6,200 plants/ha and trained on the Guyot method, cultivated following traditional manual methods without using herbicides or chemical tillings. Green harvest guarantees a perfect vegetative balance of fruit and leaves in the vineyard. This wine comes from the strictest selection of the best bunches from this vineyard. After a long maceration in wooden casks is the fining in French barriques for 24 months. The wine is bottled without filtering and remains in the cellar for another 12 months.
