Fattoria Selvapiana Chianti Rufina

Fattoria Selvapiana Chianti Rufina

Regular price $22.00

This wine is made of 95% Sangiovese and 5% Canaiolo, Colorino, and Malvasia Nera. This is a refreshing expression of Chianti, with crunchy, dusty tannins, and bright red fruit. We would pair this with a homemade lamb burger, topped with fresh tomatoes, lettuce and onion. Rufina is one of the northernmost appellations in Tuscany, and is known for producing Chianti with freshness and elegance, most likely due to the cooler nights the grapes experience up in the hilly vineyards.

Details

From our Supplier: Selvapiana is a 593 acre estate located in the Chianti Rufina appellation. The property was purchased in 1827 by Michele Giuntini Selvapiana who in turn sold it to Francesco Giuntini Antinori in 1957. The estate’s vineyards span 111 acres and are planted on a mix of galestro, limestone and clay soils. The long growing season allows the fruit to reach the proper levels of phenolic ripeness. In addition to Chianti Rufina, the portfolio also includes a Chianti Rufina Riserva Bucerchiale, and Fornace, a blend of the estate's Sangiovese and international varieties. The Selvapiana estate also manages Fattoria Petrognano, which produces Pomino Rosso.

Managers Silvia and Federico Giuntini Massetti work closely with Franco Bernabei, the consultant winemaker since 1978.
