The History of Chianti Classico<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Chianti Classico was born in 1716, when the Grand Duke of Tuscany Cosimo III decided to protect its name, setting the boundaries of the production area in a tender, which still correspond approximately to the current 70,000 hectares.<\/p>\n

In 1872 Baron Ricasoli created the first blend with Sangiovese as protagonist. In the early 90s the first Consortium was created in Radda and the symbol chosen was the Black Rooster *.<\/p>\n

1932 has been an important year because the Chianti Classico appellative was recognized for wines produced in the territory of origin; 50 years later it will obtain the DOCG designation. Towards the end of the 90s the Chianti Classico DOCG has its own disciplinary, different from that of Chianti and where Sangiovese is recognized as the prince of the territory.<\/p>\n

Mostly covered by woods, where oak, chestnut and pine trees prevail, dotted from cypresses, Chianti Classico is a plateau with altitudes ranging between 400 and 600 meters, above the sea level. The climate is continental with moderate thermal excursions, characterized by even very low and dry temperatures in winter and hot in summers.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”appear” el_class=”testi-cantine”]<\/p>\n

Sangiovese variety<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Sangiovese, the main grape of the region, is a great interpreter of the unique characteristics of the land of the Black Rooster. Chianti Classico wine can be produced with Sangiovese grapes with a minimum of 80%, and a maximum contribution of 20% of other red grapes varieties. Sangiovese is the true soul of this territory with an extraordinary grape variety, exuberant and long aging wines.<\/p>\n

Generally, it is a grape variety with good vigor and productivity. In Tuscany, in the classic areas of its cultivation, it sprouts in the first fortnight of April and matures between the end of September and the first fortnight of October.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3193″ img_size=”full” alignment=”right” css_animation=”appear”][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″ el_class=”testi-cantine”][vc_column_text css_animation=”appear” el_class=”testi-cantine”]<\/p>\n

The importance to be located in Radda in Chianti<\/u><\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Among the various municipalities that are part of the ancient denomination of Chianti Classico, we also find the municipality of Radda in Chianti, main center of Chianti Classico.<\/p>\n

Radda has its roots up to the ancient settlements of 2000 BC: some archaeological excavations, in fact, testify the presence of transient inhabitants, migrants, perhaps initially shepherds with their sheep who moved from green area to another, a tradition that it has been handed down until 60 years ago.<\/p>\n

Given its prime position between\u00a0Gaiole<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Castellina<\/em>,\u00a0Radda in Chianti<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0served as the capital of\u00a0Chianti Classico<\/strong><\/em>, and was the medieval capital of the\u00a0Chianti<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0League.<\/p>\n

Poggio Petroso\u2019s vineyards are located in Radda in Chianti, in the province of Siena, specifically in the southwest of Radda in Chianti. Here the vines are located in the Colle Petroso. The first harvest of Poggio Petroso dates to 2008 in owned vineyards that are more than 25 years old.<\/p>\n

In these areas a Sangiovese typical of the area is born and matures, reflecting the tradition and culture of the Black Rooster.*<\/p>\n

The soil is generally shallow, recent, brown, with a structure ranging from clayey-sandy to pebbly with medium percentages of clay. The microclimate of the territory of Radda in Chianti contributes to make the Chianti Classico Poggio Petroso a structured wine, with an excellent taste balance. The climate conditions have a great temperature excursion and allow to express the full aromatic potential of the grapes. The hand harvest is fragmented: the bunches are collected from time to time only when the ripening of grapes is completed. Poggio Petroso represents a specific identity for Casa Paladin, an area of immense value and great tradition in the heart of one of the most important municipalities for Chianti Classico.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row parallax_speed=”4″ parallax_x=”4″ parallax_y=”4″ css=”.vc_custom_1458912997198{margin-top: 80px !important;}”][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_custom_heading text=”Poggio Petroso\u2019s wines” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:35px|text_align:left|color:%23890404|line_height:100%25″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1638804431624{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row parallax_speed=”4″ parallax_x=”4″ parallax_y=”4″ css=”.vc_custom_1458913002991{margin-top: 60px !important;margin-bottom: 80px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3204″ img_size=”full” css_animation=”appear”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”appear” el_class=”testi-cantine” css=”.vc_custom_1638807091838{padding-right: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Following the legend, in the medieval period, when the Republics of Florence and Siena were fighting one against the other in order to prevail, the Chianti area was the main point of contention. To end the dispute and establish definitive borders of dominion, a very odd method was chosen. It was agreed that two knights would have been departed from their respective cities and fix the respective borders at the meeting point. The Departure would have been given by the rooster crow. The most important choice would have been the rooster. The Sieneses chose a white rooster whereas the Florentines a black one. It has been starved in a small, dark chicken coop without food for many days till the competition morning.<\/p>\n

On the fatal day, as soon as it was released from the coop, the black starved rooster began to crow many hours before the sunrise. Its loud crowing allowed the Florentine knight to depart before the sienese counterpart. That\u2019s why the black rooster knight won achieved the victory.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3197″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css_animation=”appear” css=”.vc_custom_1638804155977{margin-top: 5px !important;margin-bottom: 5px !important;}”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
