Tenuta Perano Red Wine by Frescobaldi Toscana

DESCRIPTION

Chianti Classico Tenuta Perano is born on the hills of Gaiole in Chianti from vineyards 500 meters above sea level. The south, southwestern exposure and the amphitheatre-shaped layout magnifies the exposure to the sun and concentrates the heat from it. The combination of elevation, exposure, and the shape and slope of the vineyards offers and extraordinarily unique quality setting that results in brilliant purple wines possessed of intensely fruity aromas and a great tannic structure rife with elegance.

VINIFICATION AND AGEING

Once harvested by hand, the grapes were vinified in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature.
Maceration on the skins with carefully monitored pump-overs allowed for perfect phenolic extraction, resulting in the appropriate colour intensity and structure typical of this wine.
The wine was then partially aged in wooden containers, delicately enriching the bouquet with tertiary aromas. After a subsequent bottle-ageing period, Tenuta Perano 2017 was ready for release.

TASTING NOTES

Tenuta Perano 2017 has a bright, intense ruby-red colour with tinges of purple. The bouquet is incredibly elegant and fruity. The attack begins with flavours of red and black berries, followed by floral notes, hints of spices and, finally, aromatic herbs. It is an intense and full-bodied wine, fresh and flavourful. The richly tannic finish is very persistent, clean and fresh.

About Us : A TUSCAN STORY

700 YEARS OF WINE HISTORY

The history of the Frescobaldi family starts over a thousand years ago and is closely connected with the history of Tuscany. At the high point of medieval Florence, the Frescobaldis spread their influence as bankers, earning the title of treasures to the English crown. A little later, with the flowering of the Renaissance, they became patrons of major works in Florence, such as the construction of the Santa Trinita bridge and the Basilica of Santo Spirito.

FAMILY

The family has always looked to develop and celebrate the diversity of Tuscany’s terroir. Being proud owners of some of the greatest vineyards in this region they have always sought to maintain the identity and autonomy of each property.

FRESCOBALDI represents the true diversity of Tuscany and its six estates, Nipozzano, CastelGiocondo, Pomino, Ammiraglia, Castiglioni and Remole, are all located in the most suitable areas for the production of fine wines.
