This wine represents the essence of the territory and the company's production philosophy: authenticity, respect for tradition, and attention to quality.\n\nThe designation \u003cstrong\u003eChianti Classico Riserva DOCG\u003c\/strong\u003e indicates a wine that has undergone a longer aging period compared to classic Chianti, which gives it greater structure, complexity, and ability to evolve over time.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe 2020 vintage was characterized by balanced weather: a mild winter, a regular spring, and a warm but not extreme summer, with good temperature variations between day and night.

The result is a harmonious wine, with a fresh and vibrant yet profound profile.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWinemaking and Aging\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe fermentation of \u003cstrong\u003eChianti Classico Riserva DOCG 'Calidonia' 2020\u003c\/strong\u003e takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, to preserve the aromatic purity of the fruit and ensure a slow and regular transformation. After a few weeks of maceration on the skins – necessary to extract color, tannin, and complex aromas – the wine matures for about \u003cstrong\u003e18 months in large oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e.

With aeration, deeper notes of leather and undergrowth emerge, typical of well-aged Sangiovese.\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePalate\u003c\/h3\u003e\nOn the palate, it is structured and enveloping, with dense yet polished tannins.
