Notes on the Wine
This Tuscan Cabernet Sauvignon was Hand-harvested from organic vineyards then fermented in cement with ambient, natural yeast. 28 day maceration with remontage and delestage. Aged in neutral botti ranging from 10 to 25 HL for two years. The wine is what super Tuscans are all about.
Notes on the Producer
Fattoria di Rodano is located along the road leading from the Elsa Valley to Castellina in Chianti, at an altitude between 200 and 300 metres above sea level. this is one of the roads forming the old “Via Franchigena", used in the Middle Ages by pilgrims to travel from Northern Europe to Rome. In Rodano an old Benedictine house existed where the pilgrims used to stop during the long travel. We are on the western side of Chianti Classico's territory, where hills are easy and open to a climate mildened by sea winds.
