WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Poggio Bonelli Chianti Classico 2020 is produced using traditional winemaking methods. Grapes are fermented in stainless steel vats at controlled temperatures (26-28°C) with daily pump-overs for 10 days, followed by an additional 10-day maceration on skins. The wine then ages for 10 months in small French oak barrels (2nd/3rd use) and an additional 3 months in bottle before release.
