Nipozzano Vecchie Viti Riserva Chianti Rúfina 2015

A mid-weight Tuscan red with a fresh approach, the 2015 Chianti Rufina Riserva Nipozzano Vecchie Viti trots out lots of dark blackberry and cherry. Enjoy the Sangiovese earthiness and its notes of rose hip and pressed flower. With fruit sourced from old vines, this expression delivers an extra level of density, thickness and extraction. The sunny and warm conditions of the vintage have added to the volume and fleshy texture of the mouthfeel. Drink date: 2019-2027. Score – 93. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, May 31, 2019)
