{"product_id":"banfi-chianti-superiore-2024","title":"Banfi Chianti Superiore 2024","description":"The \u003cb\u003eChianti Superiore\u003c\/b\u003e wine (a title attributed for its alcoholic strength and quality) of the \u003cb\u003eBanfi\u003c\/b\u003e winery is produced in Tuscany. This region, located in central Italy, has always gifted the world of \u003cb\u003ewine\u003c\/b\u003e with precious gifts of excellence. The Banfi \u003cb\u003eagricultural company\u003c\/b\u003e is one of the producers of these excellences. Located in Montalcino (Siena), it was founded in the late 1970s, in 1978 to be precise. It currently covers 2,830 \u003cb\u003ehectares\u003c\/b\u003e. The name of the company, printed on the \u003cb\u003ebottle\u003c\/b\u003e of the \u003cb\u003ewine\u003c\/b\u003e, is a tribute to the founders' great-aunt (Teodolinda Banfi), who, as an expert in the sector, introduced this environment to her nephew, who subsequently also opened a company linked to the \u003cb\u003ewine\u003c\/b\u003e trade. The \u003cb\u003egrape varieties\u003c\/b\u003e selected for the creation of this harmonious \u003cb\u003edrink\u003c\/b\u003e are \u003cb\u003eCabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eCanaiolo Nero\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003eSangiovese\u003c\/b\u003e. The fruit of this combination has led to the wine being designated \u003cb\u003eDOCG Chianti Classico\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003cb\u003eClassic and Guaranteed Designation of Origin\u003c\/b\u003e). The transformation process from \u003cb\u003ejuice\u003c\/b\u003e to \u003cb\u003ewine\u003c\/b\u003e of \u003cb\u003eChianti Superiore\u003c\/b\u003e is carried out with traditional contact of the \u003cb\u003eskins\u003c\/b\u003e for a period of eight to ten days. The \u003cb\u003eberries\u003c\/b\u003e are selected \u003cb\u003emanually\u003c\/b\u003e before \u003cb\u003evinification\u003c\/b\u003e. In the phase following \u003cb\u003efermentation\u003c\/b\u003e and preceding the \u003cb\u003ebottling\u003c\/b\u003e stage, the \u003cb\u003eChianti Superiore\u003c\/b\u003e is \u003cb\u003eaged\u003c\/b\u003e in French oak \u003cb\u003ebarrels\u003c\/b\u003e. A peculiarity of the \u003cb\u003eBanfi winery\u003c\/b\u003e is that the \u003cb\u003eoak\u003c\/b\u003e wood undergoes the treatments necessary for the creation of the \u003cb\u003ebarrels\u003c\/b\u003e directly in the \u003cb\u003ecellar\u003c\/b\u003e: we are talking about \u003cb\u003eseasoning\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003edrying\u003c\/b\u003e. The \u003cb\u003ewine\u003c\/b\u003e is then \u003cb\u003ebottled\u003c\/b\u003e in the summer following the \u003cb\u003eharvest\u003c\/b\u003e.","brand":"Banfi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45913865781419,"sku":"59316","price":13.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/banfi-chianti-superiore-2024_59316_1_db1e7cd5-74a5-474c-9e97-4e10833448b7.webp?v=1773797111","url":"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/en-fi\/products\/banfi-chianti-superiore-2024","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
