The Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG "Novecento" represents 900 years of human history in Dievole, a story that began in 1090 and celebrated with the first harvest of this wine in 1990. "Novecento" is obtained from a fermentation, with only indigenous yeasts, in cement vats, followed by malolactic fermentation also carried out naturally. The aging process, on the other hand, takes place in French oak barrels, not toasted, for 17 months, with subsequent refinement in the bottle for another 4. Wine with a unique and unmistakable structure, capable of giving a surprising complexity to both the nose and the palate.
