Chianti Classico is produced by 95% Sangiovese- and 5% Canaiolo grapes which are handpicked at full ripeness and fermented in cement tanks and / or in stainless steel tanks for 14 days, during regular stirring. The wine is then pressed and the subsequent malolactic fermentation is carried out in a heated room. The wine is decanted several times (sfecciature) and then transferred to oak barrels and for storage 10-12 months. The finalized wine is stored another 6 months in the bottle before going on sale.
