WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Brancaia Chianti Classico 2022 is crafted from 100% Sangiovese grapes. The winery employs certified organic viticulture practices, including cover crops, spontaneous fermentations, and greywater recycling. Following harvest, the wine undergoes twelve months of aging exclusively in steel and cement tanks, a technique chosen to preserve the purity of the fruit and terroir without oak influence.
