In stock

Pèppoli is the Chianti Classico from Antinori, a family that has been making Tuscan wine for more than six centuries. It comes from their own estate in the heart of the Classico zone, and it's built to show the bright, cherry-fruited side of Sangiovese - a wine to enjoy young rather than cellar.

It's led by Sangiovese, with a little Merlot and Syrah rounding it out. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel to keep the fruit fresh and aromatic, then the wine rests mainly in large Slavonian oak casks - the traditional big barrels that soften the tannins without adding any obvious oak or vanilla flavour. The point is to keep the red fruit pure and unmasked.

The result is fresh and inviting: bright red cherry, a hint of violet, and a dusting of Mediterranean herb, with supple tannins and a clean, savoury finish. Medium-bodied and easy to drink. Serve at 16-18C.

The 2024 Vintage

Chianti Classico sits in the hills south of Florence, high enough that warm days give way to cool nights - and that swing is what keeps Sangiovese fresh, holding onto its bright acidity and floral lift even in a warm year. Pèppoli leans into exactly that character: this is the open, fruit-forward face of the region, all red cherry and spring flowers, with supple tannins and the kind of savoury freshness that keeps the glass moving.

The Fulham Wine Co Take

This is the easy, reliable way into proper Chianti Classico. It skips the heavy oak and the austere grip some Sangiovese makes you wait out, and goes straight for bright cherry fruit and freshness - a wine you open and enjoy without ceremony. The Antinori name does the quality-assurance work; you just pour it.

More details

Tenuta Pèppoli

Located in the historic heart of the Chianti Classico region, the Pèppoli estate has been a cornerstone of the Antinori family’s portfolio since 1985. The vineyards face a unique east-northeast microclimate, producing Sangiovese grapes with vibrant aromatic profiles and electric acidity. By favoring maturation in large Slavonian oak casks, the estate deliberately preserves the wine's pristine floral and cherry notes rather than obscuring them with heavy wood. Pèppoli delivers a masterclass in modern Tuscan elegance, offering a bright, dynamic expression of Chianti Classico that is profoundly structured yet effortlessly graceful.

Chianti Classico

Chianti Classico is the original Chianti - the historic core between Florence and Siena, marked out by the black rooster on every bottle, where Sangiovese has been grown for centuries. Higher and cooler than the wider region, on rocky galestro soils, it gives wines of bright cherry fruit, a touch of wild herb and a fresh, moreish lift that keeps you coming back. Wherever Tuscan reds are poured, this is the one they're measured against.
