Vegante
Chianti Superiore DOCG vegano e biologico
Our constant attention to sustainability and respect drove us to produce one of the iconic wines of the Tuscan tradition in an organic and certified vegan version. This is how Vegante was born: a Chianti Superiore of genuine elegance, obtained according to the principles of vegan philosophy, avoiding the use of animal products during cultivation, vinification and stabilization. The "Qualità Vegana" symbol certifies the integrity of the ethical process according to which this wine is produced. Vegante has a delicate ruby red color with floral and fruity aromas. Cherry, violet and strawberry on a background of underbrush. The elegance of the aroma ends with a crisp and dynamic sip, balanced between structure and acidity and with a long finish of fruit, delicate spices and balsamic notes. Its green nature is highlighted by the sustainable packaging with cork derived from sugar cane, recycled paper packaging and the use of natural colors.
