Il Volpetto Chianti DOCG 2022

Volpetto Chianti is well structured and full bodied, lively and intense.

The vineyards are located in Toscana, in the province of Florence, 200-400 meters above the sea.

Harvest occurs between the end September and mid-October.

The grapes are destemmed and gently crushed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 25°C with macro oxygenation that lasts for 12 days. Frequent pumping over occurs throughout fermentation in order to extract colour and achieve soft tannins, followed by malolactic fermentation. The juice is left in contact with the skins for 8 –10 days.
