1000-3000 Bottles. A Cru of only Sangiovese grown in our small vineyard of 1.5 hectares, coming from the 3000 most "refined" vines. In the years when they are less efficient we let them rest and we only produce 1000 bottles. The resulting wine denotes a great depth in aromas, aromas and concentration. Aged for more than 3 years in steel, oak barrels and bottle, it expresses the best of the Sangiovese of our Chianti Classico. A wine that is remembered.
