Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG 2012 I Veroni

The Chianti Rùfina Riserva of the I Veroni winery was born in vineyards located in the Municipality of Pontassieve, in the heart of the Chianti Rufina.

It is produced exclusively with Sangiovese grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand. Fermentation takes place in cement tanks at controlled temperature for about 25 days. Subsequently the wine ages in oak barriques for 18 months and for a further 12 months in bottle before being placed on the market.

This Chianti Rùfina Riserva is characterized by an intense purple red color. The nose opens with fine hints of black fruits, enriched with pleasant spicy notes of tobacco. On the palate it is round, full, pleasantly velvety and dense. The wine has a tannic and long finish.

Perfect to accompany dishes with meat sauce and roasts, it is ideal in combination with stewed meats and mature cheeses.
