Comment on noteThe wine
Today I'm taking you to the heart of Tuscany, to an often little-known appellation full of character: Chianti Rufina. This Cedro from Fattoria Lavacchio is a gem that embodies tradition and respect for the land.
Fattoria Lavacchio, renowned for its commitment to organic farming, grows Sangiovese on the hills of Rufina. This production zone gives the wine a distinctive freshness and minerality. The estate strives to combine traditional Tuscan methods with sustainable, environmentally friendly viticultural techniques.
This Chianti Rufina, made from the Sangiovese grape, reveals an intense ruby red color that evolves toward garnet over time. On the nose, you will discover vigorous aromas of forest fruits, such as cherry and blackberry, enriched with delicate notes of violet and light spices, with a hint of vanilla. On the palate, it is structured and balanced. Its acidity is lively yet harmonious, working in synergy with soft but persistent tannins. The fruit is ripe and well defined, leading to a long and pleasantly spicy finish.
This wine is an excellent choice to accompany robust dishes of Italian cuisine. Picture it with a brasato, a bistecca alla fiorentina, or dishes made with mushrooms and truffles. It will also be perfect with a platter of medium-intensity aged cheeses.
I recommend this Cedro Chianti Rufina DOCG BIO from Fattoria Lavacchio if you are looking to explore a Chianti that not only respects the land it comes from, but also exalts the purity and intensity of Sangiovese. It is a true testament to the richness an organic wine can offer, an invitation to savor Tuscan authenticity.
