This cooperative, which had roughly 20 members when it was founded in 1965, has flourished, and now has 150 members, four of whom have been members since its founding. Scattered across Chianti, the vineyards cover a significant amount of territory in the Classico appellation. This wine's Riserva mention is the fruit of 24 months of aging in Slavonian barrels, followed by 12 months in oak casks and 3 months in bottles. This wine displays a lively and structured palate along with beautiful hints of cherry, cedar, cocoa, tobacco and vanilla.
