BONORLI Toscana IGT Rosso
The small Podere Bonorli, adorned with an ancient spring, is located at 350 m a.s.l. on a hill between Borro Cepparello and Borro Granaio. The Verdians were the last peasant family to live on the estate in the late 1960s. Next to the vineyard, you can still see the Bonorli spring that gives the name to the estate. In the past, springs were very important in Chianti, where, due to the conformation of the land, it was not easy to find spring water. Pietraforte emerges between the rows of Bonorli, a sandstone consisting mainly of sand that gives rise to loose, very stony soils that drain well. It is the least common soil in Chianti Classico. Bonorli is a true example of a ‘Super Tuscan’ of Bordeaux variety, broad and intense on the nose, vibrant and sapid on the palate. This red Toscana IGT embodies the freshness of the fruit and the elegance of the terroir.
