Organic farming. Fermentation in concrete tanks with indigenous yeasts; aging in 10-20 hectoliter barrels for about a year. From importer Oliver McCrum: "The Cavarchione vineyard was planted in 2009/2010 to a mixture of high-quality Chianti Classico clones of Sangiovese. Located in the commune of Gaiole, near the hamlet of Vertine. Cavarchione shows a bright mid-red color; aromas and flavors of red fruit, herbs, pencil shavings and game meat. Beefier than the other two crus, very balsamic, very long, very fresh, expressive and clean."
