Fattoria di Grignano 1994 Riserva White (Vin Santo del Chianti Rufina)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $140
From the distant 1994 vintage, this Vin Santo blend of Trebbiano and Malvasia has been aged an astonishing 15 years in small oak barrel. You can detect some of that evolution on the bouquet thanks to aromas of dried apricot, marron glacé, maple syrup and candied fruit with cinnamon spice. It’s a sweet, thick wine with great intensity and the potential to age many…  — M.L.  (12/31/2010)

From the up-and-coming Chianti Rufina area (an historic wine zone that is currently experiencing a revival of sorts) comes this plush and modern Riserva. The nose generously delivers aromas of black cherry, powdered chocolate and sweet spice.  — M.L.  (4/1/2011)

Fattoria di Grignano 2008 Sangiovese (Chianti Rufina)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $19
This Chianti Rufina opens with berry aromas and distant shadings of exotic spice. Although the nose is a bit closed and lacking in intensity, the wine picks up speed in the mouth thanks to the brightness of the acidity.  — M.L.  (4/1/2011)

Fattoria di Grignano 2003 Poggio Gualtieri Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti Rufina)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $43
This Riserva Chianti Rufina is just about over its peak. Drink it fast while those dried aromas of rose petal, prune and dark plum remain. The wine feels dusty and compact in the mouth and what keeps it alive is the freshness of its natural acidity.  — M.L.  (4/1/2011)
