The strong salinity of the ground and the temperature range must be carefully understood. The climate is influenced by Mount Amiata, an ancient extinct volcano that stands high above the horizon with its 1 mile height. The estate stretches over 240 acres, 80 of which are cultivated with vines, 42 for Brunello, with vineyards from 8 to 41 years old. The altitude of the vineyards varies from 620 to 1340 feet high. The vine exposure is towards the south-east, with more and less steep slopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSangiovese dominates in the vineyard, being the absolute protagonist of Mastrojanni wines. It is present in the Brunello, the Rosso, in the cru Loreto and in the cru Schiena d’Asino; the latter produced only in extraordinary vintages. With a pinch of imagination and fun, the winery created a \"Supertuscan\" IGT San Pio, a harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese.

These values are the result of a passionate, proud and respectful interpretation of nature, tradition and history of the territory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cantiniere","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36293748129945,"sku":"8023952023066","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0149\/9247\/4212\/files\/mastro-rosso.png?v=1770842959"},{"product_id":"il-molino-di-grace-chianti-classico-riserva-2023","title":"il Molino di Grace Chianti Classico Riserva 2023","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlcohol\u003c\/b\u003e: 14%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrape(s)\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e Sangiovese\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLocalization\u003c\/b\u003e: Chianti Classico, Chianti, Tuscany, Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eVery complex and spicy nose recalling red berries, cherry jam, and white pepper; abundant earthiness confirmed on the full, rich, silky, and persistent palate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003ePair with grilled meat, game dishes, and semi-aged cheeses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Domain\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eThe winery is named after a 19th-century historic windmill located on the property near the cantina. However, the viticultural history of the property is much older–the vineyards at Il Molino di Grace have been fruitful for over 350 years. When Frank Grace first purchased the property in 1995, there was no winery: all the grapes were sold to local producers. Using the site of a ruined barn, Grace and winery manager Gerhard Hirmer designed and built a state-of-the-art winery.

Bianchi worked to clear a vineyard he named “Il Poggio” (“The Hill”), which would be utilized for the production of a single vineyard wine riserva, the first example in Chianti Classico. Always the pioneer, Bianchi began to eliminate the white varieties, Malvasia and Trebbiano, from his Chianti Classico in 1968, preferring to use only the traditional red varieties of Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eCellar innovations in the early years included Slovenian casks for aging, instead of old chestnut barrels, as well as the introduction of stainless steel tanks for fermentation.

Today, the Monsanto estate totals 500 acres, of which slightly more than half are woods, while olive orchards occupy an additional 37 acres. Vineyards, situated between 800 and 1,000 feet above sea level, account for 175 acres.

The soils, which offer very good drainage, are made up of ocher-colored sandstones, known as “Macigno Toscano” (“Tuscan boulder”) to underline their texture and weight; mingled with them are inserts of Alberese and Galestro, and the mixture of soils that results is one of the secrets of the completeness of the local reds, which are perfumed and extremely elegant, vigorous and persistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-animation-fade=\"\" class=\"tab-content in-viewport\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-content-type=\"abbinamenti\" class=\"tab-content__item active fade-in\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Republic National","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38040863441049,"sku":"632987200151","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0149\/9247\/4212\/products\/cb0af588f2dc4f76859424cf61eb01b23e1dc48c.png?v=1772143376"},{"product_id":"ilcivettaiopoggioalcommessario","title":"Il Civettaio Poggio Al Commessario 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape(s):\u003c\/strong\u003e Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocalization:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tuscany, Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e An everyday wine, a real crowd-pleasing wine.

The 2010 Flaccianello della Pieve is a rock solid wine that sits firm and begins to peel slowly, each delicate layer at a time. It puts on quite a show with a solid core of dark fruit followed by smoke, spice, tar, licorice and delicate blue flower. On previous tastings of this vintage, I had scored it 97 and 97+ points, respectively. I'm going down one point at this sitting because the wine's fiber has unraveled, ever so slightly, at the edges. It still maintains that solid core, but the wine has taken an important jump forward in its evolution these past three years. Evidently, it is currently in a phase of relaxation and unwinding. Beautifully polished notes of Mediterranean herb and dried mint appear on the long, glossy finish.

He planned to work a few years, make some money, then go back home, buy a farm, marry his high school sweetheart and make some good wine... and not with his feet this time! It took Pierluigi 45 years before he returned with a clear vision of the high-quality wine he wanted to make: one of Italy's best, no less. In 1998 he returned to his native land and purchased some of the best lands in the region of Chianti Classico in the noted commune of Castelnuovo Berardenga. He constructed, from the roots up, this state-of-the-art winery and brought together the best technology and winemakers to bring to light wines that would be a true expression of this significant region. Pierluigi hired famed enologist Michel Rolland and Tuscan agronomist Andrea Paoletti, who put together a team that shares Pierluigi's vision - to make the best wines possible with one vitally unique ingredient - the terroir of Chianti Classico's southernmost commune: Castelnuovo Berardenga. A true marriage of tradition and modern technology. The belief in the \"best fruit produces the best wine\" is the fundamental principle of the Tolaini estate. High-density planting per hectare and low yield per plant is a proven strategy worldwide in producing excellent quality fruit. With up to 11,500 plants per hectare in the less hilly vineyards, drip irrigation for each plant, and two green harvests to pre-select the healthiest and most promising bunches on the vine, the Tolaini property produces the fruit of unsurpassable quality. This fruit is evident in every mouthful of the estate's four incredible red wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eRuggero Mazzilli is Tolaini's consulting agronomist and is based in Gaiole in Chianti where he is the owner and founder of SPEVIS (The Experimental Station for Sustainable Viticulture).

SPEVIS works with the best scientific research institutes to find new solutions to practical vineyard issues by following the principles of organic agriculture and respectful environmental practices. With Ruggero as part of the team, Tolaini will continue to cultivate the maximum expression of Chianti Classico terroir while farming organically and sustainably.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eLike the vineyards surrounding it, the winery at Tolaini Estate is an expression of both old and new. An optical sorter guarantees that only the healthy whole grapes make it into the fermentation vats. The best grapes from each harvest are fermented in open-top fermenters made of French Allier oak (12 units of 4500-liter capacity), a time-proven touch that increases the complexity of the wines. The generous array of tank sizes allows for individual parcels of grapes to be fermented and stored separately. These batches are kept apart through subsequent barrel aging in new French oak before blending. Today Luca D'Attoma is the consulting oenologist and his hand is apparent starting with the 2015 vintage of Tolaini.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 11px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Verdana\" style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eTolaini wines are known internationally for their impeccable quality and incredible taste.
