The municipality of Greve in Chianti is located in the Chianti Classico sub-area in the southern part of the province of Florence. Crossed from north to south by the River Greve, one of the three rivers of Chianti, the territory is characterized by soils rich in clay and marls and also by a continental climate. These pedo-climatic features characterize the production of Chianti Classico of Tenuta di Nozzole in the name of power and elegance. Nozzole estate consists of 1,000 acres of vineyards at 300 meters in elevation in the Chianti Classico zone. In order to obtain concentration and complexity in the wine, yields are kept low. The grapes were hand harvested, destemmed and crushed. Fermentation was initiated on the skins in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and maceration lasted 15-20 days. The wine was racked into stainless steel tanks for malolactic fermentation before aging for 16 months in large Slavonian oak vats followed by a minimum of 3 months in bottle before release. Tasting note: cherry and violet aromas, persistent and rounded flavors of spices and mushroom. Great structure with elegant finesse.
