Ormanni Chianti Classico is made by traditional vinification of Sangiovese alone. The grapes are selected and picked by hand with the greatest care in our finest vineyards.
The wine is matured for about twelve months in Segain Moreau and Gambas Barriques of oak from the Allier that have been subjected to medium high levels of toasting. This period in woods softens the tannins contained in the grapes and permits the wine's bouquet to develope, in balanced fashion, great richness of vanilla aroma typical of wood ageing.
Bottling is carried out from six to eight months before the Riserva is released for sale to ensure that the wine's odour and flavour will acquire a rounded and harmonious quality.
Because of those characteristics, this well-structured wine, alone among one hundred others, has received the prestigious Decanter Award.
