BUY TENUTA DI ARCENO CHIANTI CLASSICO ONLINE | Jubilation Wine & Spirits

This red wine offers aromatics of red fruits, violets, cypress and earth notes. The fresh palate has bright cherries, mineral and spice, with vibrant acidity, soft tannins and a long, smooth finish. Our Chianti Classico is crafted from grapes grown in the cooler portion of our estate vineyards, creating wines with alluring purity and vibrant acidity. Elevations of these vineyards range between 985 feet to 1,640 feet with a diversity of soils (river rock, sand, clay, basalt, schist). This wine is aged in French oak for 10 months and undergoes over 12 months of total aging before release. In 1996, our vineyard team conducted a detailed study of the soil, topography and climate to gain a complete understanding of the complexities of the land. These details, along with a more detailed understanding of the diversity of soils, guided decisions around where to plant new vines and varieties. Tight vine spacing, low yields and modern winemaking methods - with an understanding of Italian tradition - results in wines that are rich, pure, regionally specific and highly expressive. Pierre Seillan has spent the past five decades perfecting his micro-cru philosophy to create world-class wines. He works closely with winemaker Lawrence Cronin and his Italian team, believing his job is to respect tradition, but also enhance the future.
