Fattoria di Montemaggio - organic wine Chianti Classico Gallo Nero - Torre di Montemaggio IGT, Montemaggio Rose, Chianti Classico Riserva

The Winery and Farm Montemaggio is located in the town of Radda in Chianti, in the heart of the Chianti Classico region. The name of the winery comes from Monte Maggiore to indicate the high location of the village. The estaes of the winery Montemaggio, a member of the Consortium of Chianti Classico, cover an area of 70 hectares at an altitude of around 600 meters above sea level and are made up of vineyards, olive groves and woods. The vineyards cover an area of approximately 9 hectares, almost all in the middle of the estate, are mainly exposed to the southwest.

In the cellar, Montemaggio aims to produce a wine of high quality with close ties to the territory from which it comes, the highly successful area of Chianti Classico Gallo Nero. The quality of Montemaggio's wine production is guaranteed by the possibility of controlling the quality of wine in each bottle, thus giving customers a truly unique and special wine. During the harvest each bunch is carefully selected and the selection continues on the sorting table before entering the cellar. The grapes are harvested entirely by hand and only when the grapes are perfectly ripe: this process ensures that the wines produced by Montemaggio are 100% a unique craft that you will recognize immediately when you open a bottle. We try to limit the use of barriques in order to give our customers the opportunity to taste the flavor of the wine and not that of wood.

In addition, Montemaggio is a farm that follows the dictates of organic farming. The winery is, in fact, in an area dedicated to wine production and therefore the cultivation is done with the utmost respect for nature, with minimal use of chemicals.

The winery Montemaggio produces, as mentioned, wines with a strong territorial link, irrevocably tied to the land where they are grown, and with the taste of the wild woods that surround the winery. In addition to the aforementioned Chianti Classico DOCG, also produced in the Reserve type, among thw wine produced we highlight the Torre di Montemaggio, a cru grapes of Merlot, delicate and elegant: the Torre di Montemaggio, is left to ferment in steel or concrete for about 25 days and then develops the malolactic fermentation in barriques (second or third step), to age for a period ranging from 15 to 18 months.
