Cedro Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG BIO from Fattoria Lavacchio captivates connoisseurs and wine lovers with its aromatic richness and refined elegance. This organic red wine is produced in the esteemed Chianti Rufina region, known for its clayey soils that impart a robust structure and intense flavors to the wines.
Cedro Riserva is primarily made from Sangiovese grapes, enriched by small additions of other local grapes. The winemaking follows traditional methods, adhering to the principles of organic farming, which means avoiding the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers to produce a purer and more natural product. The aging takes place in French oak barriques, where the wine rests for several months, gaining complexity and a harmonious balance between soft tannins and lively acidity.
Visually, Cedro Chianti Rufina Riserva presents a deep ruby-red color. On the nose, notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, are immediately evident, coupled with nuances of sweet spices, chocolate, and a light touch of tobacco, derived from the aging in wood. On the palate, it is rich and fully structured, with a powerful yet refined beginning and a long, persistent aftertaste that invites another sip.
This wine is an excellent choice to accompany rich meat dishes, such as bistecca alla fiorentina or complex roasts, but is also surprisingly well-matched with aged cheeses or intense mushroom-based dishes. A true gem to save or to enjoy on special occasions, Cedro Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG BIO is a sublime example of Italian winemaking excellence in organic production.
