What importer Bowler Wine has to say about this wine...
Le Lucciole is Chiara's Riserva. It's 100% Sangiovese sourced from a parcel of 0.8 hectares planted at a density of 5,500 vines per hectare, 250m above sea level. The vines are 20 years old. The grapes were partially destemmed; those that were destemmed were left whole-berry without crushing. Fermentation was spontaneous in open-top tronconic wood vats and tonneaux, without temperture control. Maceration lasted 45 days. Aging was in used Slavonian oak botti for two years and a year in bottle before release.
