Coralia Pignatelli della Leonessa, known to everyone as “La Principessa” is one of the most reclusive owners in Chianti Classico. She was among the first producers to eliminate the use of white grapes in her Chianti Classico, starting with the 1975 vintage. There are a number of wines in the range now, but for my money, the straight Chianti Classico, followed by the Riserva, are the most notable. The wines are fermented in stainless steel, where they also undergo malolactic fermentation. Quite unusually, both Chianti Classicos begin their aging with about 11 months in steel. The Chianti Classicos are then racked into cask for aging, a minimum of two years for the Annata and three for the Riserva.
