COLLAZZI

The Collazzi Estate, nestled on the hills a few kilometres from Florence, belongs to the Marchi family since 1933. It is an impressive 400-hectare estate, with more that 25 hectares cultivated with vineyards and 140 hectares cultivated with olive groves.

Ferro

Toscana IGT

SEE DETAILS
It was the 2010 harvest that allowed to discover the potential of the Ferro vineyard. The latter’s power and unique aroma, inspired the creation of the homonymous wine originated exclusively from Petit Verdot.
Although widely considered a loyal ally in the creation of blends of excellence, here we have made it the sole protagonist, ensuring it can distinguish itself.
Rich, charming, with incredible longevity and aromatic freshness, the wine lends itself to a long fermentation in new French oak wood to complete its structure and enrich its perfumes. Tasting “Ferro” is a true sensorial experience, with its intense color, a mature, velvety, and balanced taste, and an eternal and elegant finish

Collazzi

Toscana IGT

SEE DETAILS
The different varieties of grapes used for the production of “Collazzi”, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petite Verdot, are harvested and vinified separately. The bunches are selected by hand on the vibrating selection table to eliminate any small foreign body, such as ruined grapes or leaves. The fermentation in stainless steel tanks at temperatures below 30°C is followed by a period of maceration for 18 days. The malolactic fermentation takes place in barriques (50% new, 50% second passage).
The 18-month long refinement in wood takes place in Collazzi’s underground cellar, at a natural temperature of 15°C, with a further 12 month refinement in the bottle. The first vintage produced was 1999. “Collazzi” presents itself with a beautifully intense ruby-red color, enveloping and silky to the palate, elegant and precise, with a persistent and compelling finish.

Libertà

Toscana IGT

SEE DETAILS
With the 2008 harvest begins the production of “Libertà”, Collazzi’s second wine. “Libertà” is a charming red wine with grapes harvested from the youngest vineyards surrounding our splendid estate. The Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon grapes are harvested by hand, and fermented in temperature-controlled vats. The process ends with a refinement in 225L barrels. “Libertà” is an intense and vivid red, and the mouthfeel expresses a great balance between soft tannins of Merlot and the elegant vivacity of Sangiovese. We wanted to call this wine Libertà (“Freedom”) as this word was added in 1376 to the previous owners’ coat of arms for having fought bravely against the invader for the freedom of Florence.

I Bastioni

Chianti Classico D.O.C.G

SEE DETAILS
A few kilometers away from the cellar, at San Casciano in Chianti Classico, the mature Sangivoese vines, along with the smaller sections of Merlot and Malvasia Nera, are combined to create “Bastioni”. The grapes are harvested by hand from 7 hectares registered in the D.O.C.G. list, with stone-rich and well-draining soils. The grapes are fermented in controlled temperature vats, and later refined for 12 months in barriques that give the wine elegance and sapidity.“Bastioni” imposes itself due to a unique personality: boquet notes of red fruit and cherry, with thick, ripe tannins that give complexity and character to this wine. The first vintage is produced in 2002.

Otto Muri

Toscana IGT

SEE DETAILS
The desire to produce a great white wine was in the air for many years. After careful testing, we have identified the Fiano variety as the most interesting among the many varieties that are grown in Tuscany, and our vineyard has given surprising qualities since the very beginning. The name “Otto Muri” recalls the eight terraces and walls that used to form this plot of land. The freshest soil parcel is dedicated to the Fiano cultivation. In summer, a strong day/night temperature excursion confers a greater aromatic depth, capable of saving a fresh tasting and olfactory perfume. The harvest is manual, and the grapes fermented in both vats and barrels at controlled temperature.

The vinification, conducted with the usual care and attention, allows to obtain an extremely elegant, long-lasting and thick wine. Aged for several months on the lees, it acquires a more intense color with wonderful hues that range from yellow to green, and an incomparable complexity. Its elegance and its power make it an exceptional wine.
