Retromarcia
The NAME - the Italian word Retromarcia has come to mean more to us than its literal translation "to back up" or "to reverse"; ever since we arrived in Panzano, it has been our aim to produce intensely typical and expressive wines from Tuscany's historic zone - Chianti Classico. With the name Retromarcia, we are emphasizing a return to the natural elegance and charm of Sangiovese. The VINEYARDS - Retromarcia - the wine - was born from a unique opportunity to work with local farmers who own prime vineyards in the Conca D'Oro, or golden slopes, of Panzano - a sub-zone, long regarded as one of the best growing areas for Sangiovese in Chianti Classico. These vineyards - classic in their terrain - consist of a large proportion of shale (Galestro) and marl-sandstone (Marne), and are, on average, eight years in age. As a result of a close collaboration, we achieved fruit of optimal ripeness and balance. The WINEMAKING - the vinification and maturation is reminiscent of a more traditional style Chianti Classico; fermentation takes place in a combination of concrete and stainless steel vats, with skin maceration of up to 20 days, followed by natural malolactic fermentation and maturation in 2nd and 3rd year Barriques and Tonneaux.
