Wine Istine, “Levigne” Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG, 2020

“Levigne” Chianti Classico Riserva is an elegant, dry, organic red wine made from Sangiovese grapes grown in Chianti Classico at an altitude of 550 meters on Galestro and Alberese soils. The Sangiovese vines are 15 years old, and the northwest exposure promotes their uniform ripening. The vines are trained according to the Cordone Speronato system. Fermentation takes place in cement tanks at a controlled temperature for 15 days. The wine is then aged for 18 months in Slavonian oak barrels. The wine is released in limited quantities (only 4,000 bottles) and demonstrates the meticulous craftsmanship and sophistication of a unique harvest. The wine has a storage potential of 17-20 years.
