The delicate bouquet is completed with floral notes of hyacinth blossoms and spicy hints of unsweetened cocoa powder.

The Pèppoli vineyards produce a Chianti Classico that is a blend made from Sangiovese grapes and complementary varieties; Pèppoli is recognized and appreciated for the full expression of its fruit. A wine that represents the Chianti Classico territory and its historic grape variety with typical floral and fruity aromas. Pèppoli was first produced in 1985 and since 2013 part of the harvest undergoes vinification at the Antinori nel Chianti Classico cellars.
Each grape variety was harvested separately, destemmed, gently crushed,and transferred into stainless steel tanks. Maceration was performed with mechanical methods to best extract soft, supple tannins overa period of 10-12 days for Sangiovese and for a maximum of two weeks for the complementary varieties. Once malolactic fermentation was completed the wine was blended and transferred into barrels. Pèppoli aged in large Slavonian oak barrels and a small percentage was aged in barriques and stainless steel vats.
On the nose, savory top soil, espresso and black pepper balance blackberries and black cherries. The cohesive palate is simultaneously spicy and dense with ripe but still tart and snappy fruit, and has a finish of spicy pepper, earth and a bit of bitter citrus pith. -D.C.
