Fattoria del Cerro Description
The Chianti DOCG designation applies to all Chianti wines other than those made from grapes grown in the Chianti Classico area. This appellation covers six specific sub-zones, such as Chianti Rufina and Chianti Colli Senesi, by far the largest of the sub-zones. It extends west and south of the classico zone and encompasses vineyards around San Gimignano, Montalcino and Montepulciano among others. The warmer microclimate of the southern part of Colli Senesi, enables producers to make relatively full-bodied Chianti wines.
Fattoria del Cerro has 50 acres of these vineyards are in the Chianti Colli Senesi appellation. Comprehensive in their diversity, the different expositions of the vineyards allow for a rigorous selection of the best grapes to make top quality wines.

This opens with dark berry, cedar and incense hints. The straightforward, savory palate offers red plum, star anise and bell pepper notes alongside round tannins. Drink soon.
