The San Leonino Castellina In Chianti 2019 is produced using traditional winemaking techniques. Grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine is then aged in large Slavonian oak casks. The harvest for the 2019 vintage took place under favorable weather conditions, contributing to the grape's development. Angelini Wines & Estates focuses on sustainable production practices across its estates.
