Salcheto’s Chianti Biskero offers a refined, everyday pleasure, steeped in the soul of Vino Nobile and crafted with meticulous care. Named after the Salcheto stream that runs through its 21-hectare estate in Montepulciano, this wine is a testament to organic farming and traditional winemaking. Salcheto is certified organic, and their commitment to purity is evident in every step of production: hand-harvested grapes, native yeasts, and no added sulphites.
The wine undergoes fermentation with native yeasts, followed by a maturation process where 30% is aged in 300-litre American oak Tonneaux for 4 months. After this, it rests in the bottle for an additional 3 months before release. The result is a harmonious blend of Sangiovese (85%), with Canaiolo and Mammolo rounding out the profile.
In the glass, Chianti Biskero reveals enticing aromas of dark red cherries, raspberries, and a hint of licorice, complemented by crushed flowers and a touch of spice. It’s a mid-weight Chianti that’s perfect for enjoying over the next 2-3 years.
Ideal with tomato-based pasta, this wine is not just simple but simply enjoyable, a perfect everyday choice for those who appreciate a bit of elegance with their meal.
