Product description
Volpetto, meaning fox cub, is a symbol of the Tuscan countryside. While previously feared, now foxes seen in their natural habitat are considered a sign that the area is in harmony with nature. Volpetto Chianti Riserva's grapes are a hand selection of the best Sangiovese grapes. The vineyard area is in the province of Florence, 200-400 metres above the sea. The harvest occurs between the end September and mid October. The grapes are destemmed and gently crushed, fermentation takes place in concrete vats at a controlled temperature of about 22C with macro oxygenation that lasts for 12 days. Frequent delestages and pumping over occurs throughout fermentation in order to extract colour and achieve soft tannins, followed by malolactic fermentation. The juice is left in contact with the skins for 8 -10 days. The wine is then aged for 12 months in Slavonian oak barrels of 20 to 50Hl.

I wrote to Bigamart's customer support and they accompanied the process of reshipping the item until it finally arrived. I felt a genuine effort to solve the problem till it was finally solved.
The package was here in Australia from England in a few days โ so quick! Something was missing and they refunded it straight away. Pretty happy with these guys.
