Tasting Notes: This Chianti Rufina embodies the essence of Tuscany. The vibrant Sangiovese brings notes of ripe cherries and wild berries, while the Canaiolo and Colorino add depth, floral nuances, and earthy complexity. Aged with care, the wine offers a harmonious balance of fresh acidity, silky tannins, and a medium-to-full body. Hints of blood orange, crushed violets, and a whisper of oak enhance the experience. Refined and succulent, it shows remarkable aging potential, developing even greater elegance and complexity over time. Perfect alongside grilled meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses.
A wine that captures the soul of its land with authenticity and sophistication.
