Peppoli is a wine that's complex and soundly structured, while offering all the vital, mouth filling and aromatic expressions of the Sangiovese grape. The style is made possible through a unique microclimate within the Chianti Classico region. Vines are grown to a valley with particularly favourable growing conditions. Soils are rich in minerals, ideal for the cultivation of Sangiovese, yielding harvests of fruit which are endowed with lovely varietal expressions. Peppoli is located at the heart of Chianti Classico, fifty five hectares of the most splendid vineyards.

From fruit grown to Peppoli Estate vineyards in the Chianti Classico of Tuscany. Components are separately vinified. Sangiovese, Merlot and Syrah grapes are treated to macerations aimed at preserving the characteristic aromas of the fruit. Fermentations take place at a maximum temperature of 28C, followed by completion of malolactic before winter. Parcels are assembled and transferred into a selection of Slovenian and American oak barrels for nine months. Larger format oaks are employed to preserve varietal fruit aromas derived from the fermentation process, sweetening the tannins. The finished wine is bottled and left to age under the Antinori cellars before release.
