Description and technical sheet
The Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG Riserva del Don 2016 by Colognole is a wine that expresses the elegance and tradition of Chianti Rufina, one of the most esteemed subzones for Chianti production. The Sangiovese grapes, grown in the hilly terrain of the Rufina area, form the backbone of this wine, with small percentages of complementary varieties such as Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The winemaking process involves careful grape selection, followed by an extended aging period in oak barrels, which imparts great complexity and exceptional aging potential to the wine. This Chianti Rufina Riserva is a classic interpretation of the terroir, characterized by its elegance and depth. The Riserva del Don 2016 is a wine that has great aging potential, but it can also be enjoyed now thanks to its well-balanced structure. It pairs beautifully with rich and structured dishes, such as roasted meats, braised dishes, aged cheeses, and traditional Tuscan fare.
