Antinori Description
For the 2010 - "Pèppoli was first marketed in 1988 with the presentation of the 1985 vintage. It represented, stylistically, both a well structured and complex offering and a wine with much fragrance and fruit, a character was made possible by a unique micro-climate. The vineyards are planted in a particularly favorable valley on soils rich in mineral elements, ideal for the cultivation of a Sangiovese full of vitality and fruit. The Pèppoli estate, located in the heart of Chianti Classico, consists of 100 total hectares (250 acres), fifty of which (125 acres) are planted to vines.
Ruby red in color, the 2010 Pèppoli is characterized by notes of cherry fruit well amalgamated with chocolate and vanilla from the oak aging. On the palate the wine shows much Sangiovese character with soft and silky tannins and a good persistence on the finish and aftertaste."
