Selvapiana Vigneto Erchi Chianti Rufina / 2019 / 75cl

Rufina is the smallest of Chianti’s subzones, comprising only 600 hectares of vineyards, yet it is also one of the most special. Here, the cool breeze that blows down the Sieve Valley creates exceptional wines with a finesse and definition that few others in Chianti Classico can match.  Erchi is a south facing vineyard covering six hectares in Pontassieve, on the slightly warmer western side of the Rufina denomination.

This wine has great intensity on the nose. The palate shows great power balanced by finesse. It is fruit-packed with crushed cherry, raspberry compote aromas supported by elegant notes of mint and star anise flavours. It has a bright acidity, polished tannins and a long, fine finish.
