Tasting notes: Dark, deep red color, slightly brownish at the edges. Aroma of fresh, slightly developed, dried cherry and cedar wood. Taste on the thickest side of the medium-bodied, good acids and tannins, directional and structured. The aftertaste lingers and lingers in the mouth, a bit of oak at the end. The wine has been used in heat-controlled steel tanks and has been matured in oak for 15 months before bottling. Grapes: Sangiovese 100%. Reviews: 96 points, Wine Enthusiast Outer quote mark Combining an irresistible pairing of earthy elegance and ageworthy structure, this fragrant, focused red boasts heady scents of smoke, wild berry, pipe tobacco, sunbaked earth and rose petal. The taut linear palate shows lovely tension, delivering juicy Morello cherry, crushed raspberry, baking spice and licorice framed in youthfully firm but refined tannins. Fresh acidity lends balance and energy. 93 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate The Selvapiana 2015 Chianti Rufina Riserva Vigneto Bucerchiale is a generous and exuberant expression of Sangiovese that remains ever-faithful to its traditional and territory-driven roots. This wine speaks with a Tuscan tongue, giving voice to wild berry, earthy truffle, and aromas of Mediterranean herb. The finish is softly fruity with a subtle structure (which is firm and binding nonetheless) and fresh acidity. 92 points, Wine & Spirits After a few hours open, this wine’s notes of green herbs and sappy twigs evolve toward woodsy mushrooms, adding depth to the ripe berry flavors. Tightly wound, it will benefit from decanting, or several years in the cellar. 91 points, Vinous The 2015 Chianti Rùfina Riserva Vigento Bucerchiale is powerful, dense, and quite structured. Readers will have to be patient with this strapping, tannic Riserva, but there is more than enough stuffing and pedigree to allow 2015 to develop into a gorgeous wine in a few years' time. Wild cherry, sweet tobacco, mint and dried flowers add layers of nuance on the potent finish.
