The wine region of Chianti Colli Senesi
Largest sub-zone of Chianti DOCG (Sienese hills): Sangiovese signature red king (>=75%) — intense ruby with signature notes of cherry, ripe red fruits, violet, light spice and herbal hint, full-bodied yet balanced palate with fine, persistent tannins, fruitier and more digestible style than Chianti Classico, supple tannins from warm climate on clay-sandy soils. DOCG, 6 months oak and 6 months bottle aging, 5-10 years cellaring.
The wine region of Tuscany
Kingdom of Sangiovese: upright reds with cherry, plum, dried herbs and leather, lively acidity and firm tannins. Fleshy, food-friendly Chianti Classico DOCG, deep long-ageing Brunello di Montalcino (spice, tobacco, ripe black fruit), elegant Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. On the coast, Bolgheri crafts the opulent Cabernet- and Merlot-based 'Super Tuscans'. Some fresh white Vernaccia.
The word of the wine: Reassembly
During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
