Overview
Pèppoli was first marketed in 1988 with the presentation of the 1985 vintage, a wine which represented the combination of complexity and structure and fruit and full fragrance as well. The style was made possible by a special microclimate. The vines are planted in a particularly favorable valley with soils rich in minerals, ideal for the cultivation of a savory Sangiovese bursting with fruit. The Pèppoli estate, situated in the heart of Chianti Classico, consists of 250 acres (100 hectares), 125 of which are planted to vines.

Winery Profile
One of the oldest winemaking firms in the world, Antinori first commenced producing wines in Tuscany and in and around Florence in 1385. They have since led the charge of Chianti producers in establishing the image of great Chianti and have contributed significantly to the Renaissance of Italian wines. The majority of the Antinori vineyards are located in Chianti Classico, where all efforts are centred on viticulture, with the aim of achieving Antinori's objectives to maximise the undiscovered potential in winemaking whilst safeguarding the wealth of tradition, culture and taste which gives Antinori wines their true identity.
