Nipozzano Vecchie Viti Chianti Rufina Riserva

The Nipozzano Vecchie Viti Riserva is especially dedicated to the descendants of the Frescobaldi family. Each newborn is given a private collection of 500 bottles of this impressive wine, which is stored in a very special area of ​​the wine cellar. The vintage of the wine corresponds to the child's birth year. The grapes for the Nipozzano Vecchie Viti come from the oldest vineyards surrounding Castello di Nipozzano. The grape varieties are 90% Sangiovese and 10% other permitted complementary varieties such as Malvasia Nera, Colorino, and Canaiolo. The red wine matures for 24 months in oak barrels and a further three months in the bottle, allowing it to develop its full complexity and harmony. Robert M. Parker 92 points, James Suckling 93 points
