Caparsa Riserva Caparsino Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2011

Paolo Cianferoni began his reign over his estate in 1982, having revitalized the property his family had purchased in 1965. Their vineyards are in the heart of Chianti, with many vines approaching 50 years old and the best of them at 450m above sea level. andnbsp;The winemaking is not technologically advanced, performed with native yeasts in large barrels, and in the cold cellars the fermentations are long. The resulting wines are aged in 10 hL barrels, as he says to not andquot;dry too much the wine.andquot; Paolo prefers to keep the production small and to control the process and release of his wines from start to finish. This Riserva spends 30 months in the large barrels and is bottled unfiltered. 2011 was warm, but his vineyards produced fruit of great freshness, full of charming red fruits and spice.andnbsp;
