2019 | Podere le Ripi | Rosso di Montalcino Bonsai

Producer Information

Podere Le Ripi is a Montalcino-based wine estate, producing a collection of biodynamic wines from Sangiovese, Syrah, Trebbiano and Malvasia. The estate was founded by Francesco Illy in 1997.The estate cultivates 34 hectares (84 acres) of vineyards across two locations in Montalcino. 30 hectares (74 acres) are planted to Sangiovese with small portions of Syrah, Trebbiano and Malvasia. Here, a mediterranean climate with continental influence creates a dry and cool climate for viticulture. The proximity to the Monte Amiata volcano provides a mineral soil type with a concentration of both macro and micro elements.In the vineyard, grapes are harvested by hand into baskets according to the biodynamic calendar. After arriving at the winery, grapes are hand sorted prior to a slow fermentation in barrel or open-top tonneaux.
