Selvapiana Chianti Rufina 2021

Tasting Notes

The Rufina zone is the smallest in Chianti (about 600 hectares of vineyard) but also one of the most special. The cool breeze that blows down the Sieve Valley gives the best wines a finesse and definition that few in Chianti Classico can match, and there is no better producer in Rufina than Selvapiana, which has been in the family of Francesco Giuntini since 1827. This Chianti Rufina is bright ruby in colour with intense aromas of cherry, cranberry and violet. On the palate the wine is well structured, supported by ripe tannins and refreshing acidity.
