Description

My second and last beautifully presented MAGNUM of this well known estate bottled Chianti.

1988 - must be getting rare to find now...
All is as it should be with a perfect complete label, embossed capsule in pristine order and a level commensurate with age - 'Very Top Shoulder'.

This is Magnum n° 259 of 1.800 produced in 1988.

12.5° abv

Nipozzano Riserva: A historic Frescobaldi wine that dates back to 1864. The yardstick of Chianti Riserva; vibrant personality and excellent quality have made it celebrated all over the world.
The Castello di Nipozzano, built in the year 1000 as a defensive fortress, became the center of communal life for the village of Nipozzano. Today the castle houses the wine cellar, where the estate red wines are produced and cask-aged. Castello di Nipozzano also serves as Frescobaldi’s hospitality center and as a site for its fine food and wine initiatives.

The estate lies in the heart of the Chianti Rufina area, covering 626 hectares at elevations between 250 and 400 metres. 240 hectares are planted with Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. The estate's soil, rich in clay and limestone, plus the dry, well-ventilated weather together compose the ideal terroir for the production of wines that are elegant, well balanced, and full bodied with firm structures to age well for many years. Those qualities are amply demonstrated by Frescobaldi Nipozzano Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG and by the Frescobaldi Montesodi and Frescobaldi Mormoreto crus.
