 Climate
 The 2021 vintage from Chianti Classico will be remembered
 for a long slow-paced season: a vintage that promises power and
 finesse. Temperatures during the winter months were not
 excessively cold and were accompanied by rain showers that
 lasted up until the end of March. The beginning of spring
 triggered early bud break, but cool, dry weather in April slowed
 down the vines’ vegetative cycle. May and June followed normal
 weather patterns, not too hot with scattered precipitation that
 guaranteed excellent flowering and fruit set of all grape
 varieties in the Solaia vineyard. Overall, summer was hot and
 dry, especially during August but towards the end of the month,
 occasional rainfall provided ideal conditions for the vines to
 begin the ripening phase. September and October were picture
 perfect: sunny skies, no heat spikes, refreshing breezes and
 cool nighttime temperatures that allowed the grapes to
 gradually progress to peak ripeness. Overall, the 2021 vintage
 is considered to be one of the best vintages ever. Harvesting
 operations, occurred slightly later than average, began during
 the final days of September for Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese
 and were completed on October 21st with Cabernet
 Sauvignon. Total annual rainfall: 707.8 mm (278.6 inch)
 Average temperature April 1st – October 21st: 19.2 °C (66.6
 °F) Rainfall April 1st – October 21st: 251.6 mm (99 inch)
