A Tuscan red wine, Chianti Coni Senesi DOCG is the latest production by Il Poderaccio.The first bottle of this 2004 production dates 2005 and represents an excellent, quality-for-money choice.

These organically cultivated grapes have been controlled and certified since 2000.

A traditional wine-making process is used for the production of this Chianti which is preserved inside steel and concrete temperature-controned thanks to superficial water flowing on stainless steel tanks.
The fermentation and the following soaking processes last 10 to 15 days during which deléstage and the repassing of must over the grape dregs enhance polyphenolics extraction. Malolactic fermentation is completed afterwards.

Produced with pure Sangiovese grapes, the same used for the renowned "Brunello di Montalcino" cultivar, this unique wine is made in Chianti, where Il Poderaccio is located, hence the name of Brunaccio, that is "Brunello of Il Poderaccio".
The grapes are organically cultivated and submitted to relevant control and certification procedures since 2000. Today the reference certification body is the I.C.E.A. (Institute for ethical and environmental certification).
Tasting notes: Brunaccio offers the most genuine expression of the Sangiovese wine cultivated on the Chianti hills of Siena. These organically grown grapes, make 100% of Brunaccio and ripen at least 2 years in concrete tanks thus “taming” tannins without losing its special features.
With a ruby, almost burgundy red colour, Brunaccio has an intense, winey perfume and a dry, well-balanced, slightly tannic, vigorous and lingering flavour. Its special odours include tobacco, red fruits, blackberry, raspberry and an after-taste of stones of mature cherries.

"Organic Grappa"
(made from organically grown grapes) A special 43-degree grappa is the ultimate produce of Il Poderaccio Farm. This special liquor is distilled by D.E.TA. srl from pomaces obtained from organically grown grapes.
No pesticides are contained in anticriptogamic and antiparasitic treatments applied to the vines and grapes and a limited use of sulphur dioxide allows for the development of a different microbic flora. Pleasantly unusual aromas and tastes - specially dedicated to the fans of organic products - are thus generated in this unique liquor.
Limited production - a few 0.50 - litre bottles per year.
