2023 Selvapiana Chianti Rufina
Description
WINEMAKER: Selvapiana Family
VARIETY: Sangiovese
REGION: Tuscany, Italy.
Selvapiana is a historic family-run estate in the Chianti Rufina DOCG, a cool, elevated subzone in Tuscany northeast of Florence, producing elegant, terroir-reflective Sangiovese-based wines since the 19th century. The 2023 Chianti Rufina shows a bright ruby-red colour with aromas of red cherry, cranberry and ripe berries edged by gentle spice and floral notes. On the palate it’s medium-bodied and lively, with juicy fruit, refreshing acidity and fine, balanced tannins that deliver a poised, classic Tuscan profile.
Critic tasting note: (2023 vintage) "Bright and fragrant with floral notes, red berries, orange peel and a touch of wild herbs. Linear and juicy with crunchy tannins and a crisp, citrus-laced finish. Drink now or hold." - James Suckling

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
