            [Notes2] => The Pèppoli estate is located 5 kilometers north east of the Tenuta Tignanello estate with a total area of 100 hectares (247 acres) of which 50 hectares (123 acres) are planted with vineyards and is home to Peppoli Chianti Classico DOCG. Despite the vineyards unusual eastern/northeastern exposure, the microclimate is ideal. The small surrounding valley keeps the area warm and protected and its gravelly soils are rich in minerals that give the Sangiovese grape a lively fruity character.Pèppoli’s vineyards are planted primarily with Sangiovese and with a small percentage of complementary varieties such as Merlot, Syrah and Malvasia.

            [ServingSuggestion] => 
            [WineMakingNotes] => Each grape variety was harvested separately, destemmed, gently crushed, and transferred into stainless steel tanks.
Alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature between 26 and 28 °C (80 – 82 °F) to enhance
aromatic compounds and preserve the fruity and floral notes of each grape variety.  Maceration was performed with
mechanical methods to best extract soft, supple tannins over a period of 10-12 days for Sangiovese and for a
maximum of two weeks for the complementary varieties. Once malolactic fermentation was completed bythe end of
the winter season, the wine was blended and transferred into barrels. Pèppoli was aged in large Slavonian oak barrels
and a small percentage was aged in barriques and stainless steel vats. Bottling began in the month of October.

About this product +

Producer >

The Pèppoli estate is located five km to the northeast of the Tignanello  estate and extends over a total surface area of 100 hectares, 50 of which are planted to vines which produce the Peppoli Chianti Classico. The classic winemaking style, with gentle extraction and just a hint of oak mean this estate is one that offers excellent value within Chianti Classico.

Viticulture >

The Pèppoli estate is located 5 kilometers north east of the Tenuta Tignanello estate with a total area of 100 hectares (247 acres) of which 50 hectares (123 acres) are planted with vineyards and is home to Peppoli Chianti Classico DOCG. Despite the vineyards unusual eastern/northeastern exposure, the microclimate is ideal. The small surrounding valley keeps the area warm and protected and its gravelly soils are rich in minerals that give the Sangiovese grape a lively fruity character.Pèppoli’s vineyards are planted primarily with Sangiovese and with a small percentage of complementary varieties such as Merlot, Syrah and Malvasia.

Winemaking >

Each grape variety was harvested separately, destemmed, gently crushed, and transferred into stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature between 26 and 28 °C (80 – 82 °F) to enhance aromatic compounds and preserve the fruity and floral notes of each grape variety. Maceration was performed with mechanical methods to best extract soft, supple tannins over a period of 10-12 days for Sangiovese and for a maximum of two weeks for the complementary varieties. Once malolactic fermentation was completed bythe end of the winter season, the wine was blended and transferred into barrels. Pèppoli was aged in large Slavonian oak barrels and a small percentage was aged in barriques and stainless steel vats. Bottling began in the month of October.
