2021 Frescobaldi Nipozzano Riserva 750ml

A crunchy Rufina mainly from 1970s Sangiovese vines with dashes of both local heritage and international varieties, too. Fermentation in stainless steel precedes 24 months in concrete and large, second-fill oak vats. Its bright scarlet hues mirror equally bright and deliciously savory fruit. The compact palate provides coherent interplay between fruit and tannin with no sense of over ripeness or oaky angularity. It's mouthwatering now but resist so its texture evens out fully.
