Descrizione

The Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG from Nipozzano, the historic estate of Frescobaldi, represents one of the most elegant and long-lived expressions of Chianti. This wine is born in the hills of Rufina, a renowned DOCG subzone known for its galestro-rich soil and cool climate, ideal for the cultivation of Sangiovese. The main grape variety gives the wine intense aromas of cherry, plum, and sweet spices, enriched with herbal and mineral hints. The aging in oak barrels provides softness and complexity, balancing well-integrated tannins and fostering a sophisticated aromatic development. On the palate, the Chianti Rufina Riserva surprises with its balanced structure, with a persistence that harmoniously lingers on the finish. Perfect paired with dishes based on red meats or aged cheeses, it represents an excellence of the Tuscan territory, capable of telling the tradition and winemaking mastery of Frescobaldi.
