The Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG Nipozzano by Frescobaldi is born in the heart of Tuscany, in one of the areas best suited for the expression of Sangiovese. This wine testifies to the excellence of the Rufina territory, characterized by hilly lands with soils rich in galestro and alberese, which impart complexity and finesse to the product. The predominant grape variety is Sangiovese, accompanied by native varieties that complete the blend by giving structure and freshness.

The long aging in Slavonian oak barrels gives this Chianti Rufina a robust body and a velvety texture, with typical aromas of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and light toasted notes. On the palate, it stands out for the balance between acidity and well-integrated tannins, with a persistent and enveloping finish.

Perfect with grilled meat dishes or aged cheeses, this Magnum in wooden case is ideal for moments of sharing, enhancing the craftsmanship and history of the Frescobaldi winery.
