The 2019 VINTAGE turns out to be a reflection of a wonderful season. The richness and aromatic intensity are astounding, the fruity notes come out first in an incredible way.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
The winter of 2019 was characterized by cold weather with abundant precipitation, even snowfall. The spring thaw and rising temperatures allowed the vines to sprout in the period typical for the Chianti area at these altitudes, 500-600 meters above sea level. The mild spring temperatures caused the leaf apparatus to develop well with a very extensive and complete vegetative wall. The vines flowered from June 7 to June 10 with days full of sunshine, mild temperatures and ventilation that promoted perfect fruit set. Subsequently, veraison, also regular, occurred in early August thanks to optimal conditions of heat during the day but mitigated by good cool night ventilation coming from the woods surrounding the Tenuta Perano vineyards. The very hot but not excessive summer was marked by a rain in mid-August determining an important contribution to remember 2019 as an exceptionally good VINTAGE. The 2019 VINTAGE should be considered extraordinary for its intensity of aromas and richness of tannins that the summer rain made soft and velvety.
Once harvested by hand, the grapes were vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Maceration on the skins with pumping over, controlled and careful, allowed a perfect extraction of polyphenolic substances, able to give the right color intensity and typical structure. Subsequently, the wine was partly aged in wood, going to delicately enrich the olfactory component of scents tertiaries. Only after a further period in bottle Tenuta Perano was ready to make its entrance.
