The estate’s character is reflected in MEME wines, two wines that owe their name to Emanuele Pellegrini’s nickname for his grandfather, who was also named Emanuele. MEME Chianti Superiore DOCG and MEME Chianti Riserva DOCG thus combine memory and the family tradition with the new generation, who is now at the helm of the company. MEME wines represent 90% of the company’s production and are produced according to traditional methods using only the local Sangiovese and Canaiolo varietals. MEME Chianti Superiore is a pure Sangiovese with a strong regional identity and an overall pleasing character. In the glass, it indeed reflects what it means to be superior.

Grapes variety: Sangiovese 100%

Vinification: The grapes come from multiple parcels whose soil has a medium clay-heavy texture, which gives the wine a rich feel of tannins in the mouth. It is produced in stainless steel vats and aged for at least eight months in steel and cement vessels before bottle ageing. If stored under ideal conditions, it will reach peak maturity in 10 years.

Tasting notes: Ruby red colour. Essentially fruity scent, with predominant notes of blackberries and sour cherry. Its profile is rounded out with aromatic notes of violet and cassis. On the palette, it is quite vigorous and robust. It is powerful to start, owing to its graceful tannin content, with a pleasant fruity finish. It is a very young wine and is a good representation of the ripeness and concentration of the vintage, without losing its freshness.

Alcohol content: 13.5% vol.

Food pairing: Excellent when paired with cured meats and grilled or roasted red meat. Pasta with meat sauce and semi-hard cheeses.

Serving temperature: 16-18°C
