Chianti Rufina
Chianti Rufina - 2005 - Grati
Ref: A104905
Ripe, fresh and zesty with a lovely blackcurrant fruitiness and great acidity.

The Grati family has been growing grapes and olives in Rùfina for five generations. The XVI century Villa di Vetrice was built around an old XIII century watchtower.

The estate is owned by the Grati brothers and extends over an area of 562 hectares, on the hills between Pontassieve and Rùfina, and one hundred hectares are dedicated to vineyards. The family's bonds with the land are deeply rooted, so deeply that they have even affected its morphology, with two lakes they created: Galiga and Vetrice. The landscape, with its vineyards interspersed with twelve thousand olive trees and cypresses towering over the hills, is typically Tuscan. The soil is fertile and clayey, with an eastern exposure it enjoys a dry, ventilated climate to produce outstanding grapes: Sangiovese, Canaiolo, and Colorino along with Malvasia, Trebbiano, Cabernet and Merlot.


Price:   £8.18
Including  VAT at 17.5%
