Deep ruby red with violet reflections. The bouquet on the nose reveals clear scents of blueberry, blackberry, chocolate & black tea, whereas pleasant hints of dark chocolate, black tea, vanilla & coffee make their way through with determination.

Bright ruby red in colour, this wine has perfumes of ripe blackberry, red cherry & a touch of spice on the nose. On the palate, it is ripe & juicy but still fine & elegant in the Selvapiana style, with a tight structure & lifted, floral finish with refreshing acidity. The Rufina zone is the smallest in Chianti (about 600 hectares of vineyard) but also one of the most special. The cool breeze that blows down the Sieve Valley gives the best wines a finesse & definition that few in Chianti Classico can match, & there is no better producer in Rufina than Selvapiana, which has been in the family of Francesco Giuntini since 1827. 95% Sangiovese, 5% Canaiolo, Colorino & Malvasia Nera. Following the smaller 2017 vintage, yields returned to normal in Chianti Rufina in 2018. Spring was wetter than usual & a rainy June meant that there was a lot of vegetative growth & vine canopies needed to be controlled. Some green harvesting was also carried out to limit yields & ensure maximum flavour concentration in the bunches left to ripen. Veraison began at the end of July &, thanks to the warm days & cool nights in Chianti Rufina, the grapes ripened at a steady pace & were harvested at the end of September with the ideal balance between flavour concentration & acidity. ...

The subtle flavours that dill adds, creates a unique London Dry Gin, which is incredibly light on the palate. Fattys Organic Gin creates a soft, full flavoured explosion landing on the front of the palate, before slowly melting away to leave a crisp, refreshing finish. ...
