Vinification of the Nipozzano Vecchie Viti Chianti Rufina Riserva by Frescobaldi The vinification of the Nipozzano Vecchie Viti Chianti Rufina Riserva begins in the vineyard, located in the famous Chianti Rufina region. Here, the grapes thrive on calcareous soils, which impart a special minerality. Experienced vintners manually harvest the grapes to select only the best specimens. After the harvest, selective processing takes place. The grapes are destemmed and gently pressed before being placed into stainless steel tanks, where fermentation begins under controlled temperatures. To optimally extract the aromas, regular pump-overs occur. After fermentation, the wine matures for at least 24 months in French oak barriques. This aging process creates additional depth and complexity in the flavor profile.
