Principe Corsini Le Corti Chianti Classico 2023

Duccio Corsini is the 22nd generation of the Corsini family to be custodian of the Principe Corsini estates in Chianti Classico and Maremma. 

Villa Le Corti is located in the most northern section of Chianti Classico, in the town of San Casciano. Generally, the temperature is slightly cooler around this commune, but Duccio also picks marginally earlier than most of the 8 other communes.

The soil generally shows more river stones and sand resulting in lighter wines with more elegance and finesse. Vines are grown on south-facing slopes, trained close to the ground to benefit most from the radiated heat. The estate has been managed organically since 2015.

This Chianti Classico annata is 95% Sangiovese, with a splash of local grape Colorino adding colour and structure. Grapes are fermented in temperature controlled open-topped tanks, and the wine matures for a year in cement.
