Vallepicciola
The estate, 265 hectares among woods, vines and olive trees, enjoys a mild microclimate, the ideal condition for wine production: the hectares under vineyards are currently 105, with a major presence of the king of the Tuscan vines, Sangiovese, intended mainly for the production of Chianti Classico, and even international varieties, such as Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Chardonnay, used for IGT Toscana wines

Tuscany
Tusany is the heart and soul of winemaking in Italy. The ancient Chianti Classico lands which are blessed with a mild microclimate and beautiful landscape and are ideal for winegrowing. The vineyards, which grow in soils containing either clay, calcreous marl, blush marl, tuff, sandstone or sand, are planted in the hilly areas to the left of the Arbia river.

Product Details
Harvest: The best Chardonnay berries are carefully selected and hand-picked from Poggione vineyard in the last decade of August.
Vintage: Seasonal trends in the 2021 vintage were fairly regular. The rains of the spring period allowed good vegetative development and provided an important water reserve to face the drier summer months. The only phenomenon that could be noted, in the spring period, is the slight dissimilarity in the timing of shoot growth, due to a few days after Easter that recorded temperatures below the seasonal average, momentarily halting vegetative development in the cooler areas of Chianti Classico. At the health level, there was no pressure from fungal diseases
Vinification: 50% concrete tanks, 50% tonneaux, batonnage everyday for 10 days
Aging: In 100% new french oak barriques for 12 months, batonnage once a month. Bottle aging: 4 months Longevity: 8-10 years
