The Chianti Rufina DOCG by Colognole is one of the finest expressions of this renowned Tuscan wine. Coming from the Rufina subzone, one of the most prestigious areas of Chianti, the wine perfectly reflects the unique characteristics of this region, which, thanks to its cooler climate and particular soil composition, imparts a distinctive freshness and complexity to the wines. The Chianti Rufina DOCG 2017 is made primarily from Sangiovese, the emblematic grape of the region, with a small percentage of other local varieties. After careful winemaking, the wine matures in oak barrels for about a year, developing a balanced structure and good aging potential.
