TASTING NOTES

Grignano is born in the heart of Chianti Rufina, which is a historic wine production area. Chianti Rufina is the smallest of the Chianti subregions and is considered among those best designed to ensure the uniform quality of the wines produced, so much so that it was officially mentioned by Cosimo III in his Edict of 24 September 1716, which classified the wine produced in this area among the best four in Tuscany. The grapes that make up the Poggio Gualtieri reserve come from vineyards halfway up the hill, between 300 and 400 metres above sea level. 90% Sangiovese is blended with 10% Merlot, which enlivens the flavour. After vinification in stainless steel, malolactic fermentation is carried out in large barrels and barriques, with ageing divided between large 18 hl barrels and small French barrels. Before sale, the red wine rests in the bottle for a year. The ruby red colour in the glass is highly concentrated. Complex nose of small red berry fruit on a background of sweet spices and vanilla produced by the wood. Full, firmly structured and elegant palate, supported by a well composed tannin leading to a balsamic finish. A bottle to place in the middle of the table and enjoy calmly for Sunday lunch, pairing it with hearty white meat and vegetable dishes.

THE WINERY

Grignano

A point of reference for viticulture in the Chianti Rufina area, north-east of Florence, close to the Apennines, lies Fattoria Grignano. The history behind this place is very ancient: the earliest records date back to the Bronze Age, not to mention the remains of Etruscan and Roman buildings that can be seen here. Well aware of its historical and territorial relevance, the Inghirami family purchased these 600 hectares in the heart of Tuscany in 1972. The Grignano vineyards grow luxuriantly on clay and limestone soils, at an altitude of up to 400 metres above sea level. Together with excellent sun exposure and a microclimate consisting of climatic variations, these elements guarantee excellent maturation of the grapes, which are rich in aromatic notes. Fattoria Grignano wines undergo intense ageing processes: depending on the designation, they pass from oak barrels or French barriques to bottles, where they stay for a further six months. Fruit of the peculiarity of the place and the extreme care of its managers is an elegant wine that best represents the character and freshness of the Rufina grapes, Sangiovese above all. Name and address of producer/distributor: Grignano - Via di Grignano, 22 - 50065 Pontassieve (FI). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
