Description
The Chianti Classico Vigneto di Campolungo is produced by the Lamole di Lamole winery, located in Greve in Chianti. The grapes come from the company's historic vineyard of the same name.
It is made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes, harvested between the end of September and mid-October. The grapes are de-stemmed and crushed, then vinified in 50 hl truncated cone barrels, with maceration on the skins for a few weeks. Most of the wine is subsequently aged for at least 30 months in oak barrels, while a small proportion is left to rest in barriques. Finally, the wine completes its ageing by spending at least 9 months in the bottle.
In the glass, the wine has a deep ruby red in colour. The nose is full of violets, berries and balsamic and spicy notes. The palate is powerful and structured, with very fine tannins, fresh and savoury.
Ideal with first courses, both savoury soups and pasta seasoned with game sauces. Also excellent with semi-aged and aged cheeses.
