Chianti Rufina is known for its high elevation, which means the Sangiovese can ripen slower, make more enjoyable tannins, and allow for the wine to age more slowly. Elegant and sophisticated. Fresh, fruity with cherry and mineral aromas, silky tannins and long finish. Very much in line with the natural delicacy that is the key signature of the Rufina appellation.
