The Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG Nipozzano by Frescobaldi is born in the heart of the Chianti Rufina production zone, in a terroir that enhances the expression of top-quality Sangiovese grapes. The grape selection is done by hand, and the fermentation takes place in stainless steel, followed by 24 months of aging in oak barrels. This process gives the wine a solid structure and excellent aging potential. The Nipozzano vineyards are located at an altitude of about 300 meters above sea level, with a perfect exposure to achieve ideal grape ripening. The result is a wine that blends tradition and modernity, representing one of the finest expressions of the Chianti Rufina denomination.

CHIANTI RUFINA RISERVA DOCG NIPOZZANO - FRESCOBALDI: Tasting Notes

The Chianti Rufina Riserva Nipozzano presents in the glass with an intense ruby red color, with garnet reflections. The nose is broad and complex, with aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and blackberry, intertwined with spicy notes of black pepper and tobacco. The palate is elegant, with silky tannins and a good acidity that gives freshness and length to the finish. The balsamic and mineral aftertaste makes this wine a perfect pairing with meat dishes, especially roasts and braised meats.
