2017 Brolio Bettino Chianti Classico DOCG, Barone Ricasoli
Denne etiket er dedikeret til Bettino Ricasoli der opfandt formlen til produktion af Chianti i 1872.
Han blev født i Firenze den 9. marts 1809 og var søn af Baron Luigi og Elisabetta Peruzzi. Han spillede en central rolle i historien om den italienske Risorgimento. Men han var meget mere end dette: han var to gange premierminister i det forenede Italien (i 1861 og 1866), grundlægger af avisen “La Nazione”, forsøgslederen i landbruget og “far” af de første produktions- regler for Chianti Classico.
Når vi produceret denne vin, vi forsøgte at følge hans vilje, og vi arbejdede på de elementer, der minder os om stilen i sin tid.
Vi hovedsagelig brugt Sangiovese; vi ikke filtrere det; og vi modnet det i store fade. Resultatet blev denne vin, der skiller sig ud for sin store elegance og karakter.
Voksende Season
De 2012 efterår og 2012-2013 vintre var blandt de mest regnfulde af de sidste par år. Den virkelige foråret begyndte den 10. april, når det stoppet regner og der var en pludselig ændring i temperaturen med ekstremt høje gennemsnitlige dagtemperaturer.
Sommer var begyndt med våde jord, men de høje temperaturer og solskin tegnede sig for homogene bundter. Året blev formet i september: summerlike temperaturer i løbet af dagen falder natten (med en 15 ° C forskel mellem nat og dag), der tillod en perfekt teknologiske og polyphenolisk modenhed.
- Vinifikation: Traditionelle i små rustfri ståltanke. Udblødning på skind til 12-16 dage ved kontrolleret temperatur på 24 ° C-27 ° C (75,2 ° -80,6 ° F).
- Aldring: 18 måneder i store fade efterfulgt af bundfældning og mindst tre måneder i flasken.

2017 Brolio Bettino Chianti Classico DOCG, Barone Ricasoli
He was born in Florence on March 9th 1809 and was the son of Baron Luigi and Elisabetta Peruzzi. He played a central role in the history of the Italian Risorgimento. But he was much more than this: he was twice Prime Minister of the united Italy (in 1861 and 1866), founder of the newspaper “La Nazione”, experimenter in agriculture and “father” of the first production regulations for Chianti Classico.
When we produced this wine, we tried to follow his will and we worked on those elements that remind us of the style of his time.
We mainly used Sangiovese; we did not filter it; and we matured it in big casks. The result was this wine that stands out for its great elegance and character.
CHIANTI CLASSICO DOCG
VINEYARD
This wine is a contemporary interpretation of the extraordinary research carried out by Bettino Ricasoli.
Produced primarily with Sangiovese grapes, then unfiltered, it is an elegant wine
with a distinctive personality.
GROWING SEASON
This was an atypical year, perhaps unlike any ever registered. Winter was fairly mild and
warm. The frost that arrived on 18?20 April, the drought, the extreme heat that lasted for more
than two months, all scorched the earth and the grapevines. For this reason, the leaf removal
typically carried out before grape harvest was avoided; instead, the grapevines were left
“untidy”, only slightly trimmed, to protect the fruit from the rays of the sun. At the end of
August and the first ten days of September, rains came and the temperatures dropped
drastically, all the way to the seasonal average.
WINEMAKING
Traditional in small stainless steel tanks. Maceration on the skins for 14-16 days at controlled
temperature of 24°C-27° C (75.2°– 80.6°F)
