During the last 30 years, the Madiere according to quality classification was a simple IGT, i.e. country wine. As such, however, the Tenuta San Vito Madiere has always been one of the best wines of the Tenuta San Vito. Finally there was a new regulation for the Denominazione Chianti Colli Fiorentino DOCG, to be allowed to use the quality designation "Riserva" for particularly high quality wines of this origin.

Organic wine processing Tenuta San Vito Madiere, Chianti Colli Fiorentino, Riserva DOCG, red

The best and strictly selected grapes of Tenuta San Vito are pressed after 15 to 20 days of maceration and fermentation, followed by 12 months in barriques. This is also where the biological acid degradation takes place. A bottle storage for more than one month completes the ripening process before the wine is allowed to leave the winery.
