This Fattoria di Basciano Chianti Rufina is a bright ruby-red wine with aromas of ripe cherry and wild berries.On the palate, it is medium-bodied and well-balanced, with a good acidity that gives way to flavors of raspberry, strawberry, and a hint of sweet spice. The finish is long and smooth with lingering notes of red fruit and licorice. This is a great example of a classic Chianti Rufina, delicious on its own or paired with grilled meats, hard cheeses, and tomato-based pastas.
