Selvapiana Bucerchiale Chianti Rufina Rsv 2019

 (95 Points – Jeb Dunnuck; 94 Points – James Suckling)

From 100% Sangiovese vines is stunning in all respects, beginning with an entrancing floral bouquet. Scents of red raspberry, cherry, and rose petal waft from the glass. Although quite young and built for long ageing, the 2019 Bucerchiale Riserva already comes across as seamless in the mouth. Layered and complex, the wine’s deep berry, cedar, floral, and forest floor flavors are wed to refined tannins, which thoroughly captivate the palate. Powerful but wonderfully nuanced, the 2019 Selvapiana Bucerchiale Riserva is simply magnificent and an extraordinary example of how splendid Rufina Chianti can be. Enjoy this wine now and for the next decade. For optimal enjoyment, we strongly suggest an hour in a decanter before serving at cool room temperature (58°-62° F).
