2014 vintage. Colour suggests that there is more than a drop of Merlot and/or Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. Well-made in a international style, but no Chianti Rufina typicity whatsoever. Nippozzano was so much more interesting 15 years ago.

Very nice medium body red with red fruit like plum & strawberry. On the dry side with not too much oak or tannins.
