Description
Pèppoli Chianti Classico is one of Marchesi Antinori’s historic wines, produced since 1985 from Sangiovese with small amounts of complementary varieties such as Merlot and Syrah. It comes from the vineyards of Tenuta Pèppoli in the heart of Chianti Classico and is designed to express the fruity and floral character of Sangiovese with clarity.
Each variety is vinified separately in stainless steel, with temperature-controlled fermentation and maceration aimed at extracting soft tannins. After malolactic fermentation, the final blend matures mainly in large Slavonian oak casks, with small portions in barriques and stainless steel. The nose shows cherry, raspberry, pomegranate, violet and geranium. The palate is lively and juicy, with sweet tannins, bright freshness and a long, savoury, lightly saline finish.
