The Sangiovese and Canaiolo grapes are sourced from Uggiano's vineyards - which stretch over the hillsides joining Montespertoli with Montelupo Fiorentino and San Casciano Val di Pesa. After pressing, the grapes undergo temperature-controlled fermented in stainless steel using selected yeasts - with pumping over twice a day. After 10-15 days the wine is racked and fermentation finished in cement tanks.
Uggiano Chianti Roccialta is a remarkably good entry-level Chianti with a rounded palate and vibrant cherry fruit. Perfumed aromas of red cherry lead onto a palate of bramble fruits, black cherry, fresh redcurrants and spice - all balanced by vibrant acidity and supple tannins. A wonderful wine to complement roasted and grilled meats, pici pasta with rabbit ragu.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
