Fattoria Lavacchio Rufina 'Cedro' 2017 (Italy)
- Rich fruit
- Black pepper
- Spice notes
- Dense tannins
A bright intense ruby red in the glass with a full bouquet, which is clean and persistent, with a taste of small mature woodland fruits and black pepper. A dry wine that is sapid, giving a dense tanning, that are hot and full. On the finish this wine offers good persistence with background flavour of fruit and spices.
This Chianti Rufina is produced from Sangiovese grapes accurately selected from Fattoria Lavacchio's vineyards, it reflects the typical style of the territory taking the name of the Farm as its symbol. Its character combined with advanced technology used within the Farm creates a particularly bodied wine with strong disposition towards ageing. These vineyards are situated 400 metres above sea level on soil rich in structure and for the most part made up of marl (Tuscany rock) to which Chianti owes its character. Grapes were hand harvested for careful selection into crates before the middle of October.
In the vineyard grapes underwent cleaning of grape-stalk and soft pressing of grapes, fermentation and soaking with controlled temperature, a little in steel vats and a little in vats of French oak-wood for about 15 days with numerous turning and stirring. Ageing then took place inside French oak-wood barrels of 35 hl for about 12-16 months. Refining continued in bottle for at least 6 months.
Food pairing: A young wine, goes with the whole meal.
