Description
Casa Emma Harenae Colli della Toscana Centrale IGT 2018
Casa Emma Harenae is Sangiovese made entirely in amphora. Brilliant ruby red colour. Fresh and crispy bouquet of wild raspberry, red cherry and balsamic notes. Medium- to full-bodied with a good structure, chewy tannins and a crisp acidity. Raspberry compote and ripe red cherry flavours with layers of mulberries, tobacco and leather. Long and persistent finish.
Fun fact: 'Harenae' is the latin word for sand or Terracotta. The word was chosen as the wines' namesake to honour how sand is the essential material to build Amphora vessels.
100% Sangiovese from plots at the highest elevations of the Chianti Classico appellation. The plots sit at an altitude of 480 metres and have a limestone, rock and clay soil composition. These vines experience the earliest bud breaks and latest harvest times.
After the harvest, the grapes go through vinification and fermentation spherical amphora of 1000 L with manual crushing of the grapes. The wine ages for 1 year in amphoras, then for 6 months in bottles.
Ageing potential: 12 years
