From a careful selection of Montepulciano grapes from old vines, the wine is aged for a year in French barriques followed by another year in bottle. The wine is full and elegant and made in limited quantities in only the best vintages (6 x 75 cl)
Only 12000 bottles of this wine are currently produced from 12 hectares, this however is due to increase to 25000 in the next few years following new planting. The flavour is dominated by a vanilla tone which makes way for sweet, ripe, juicy fruit from blackcurrant to blueberry and blackberry. A well-balanced wine with a clean and long finish. (12 x 75 cl)
Renzo Masi's 30-hectare estate is the Fattoria di Basciano, situated in the heart of the Chianti Rufina region. Managed by Paolo Masi, this outstanding producer makes wines which are first and foremost about clean fruit and rich texture (6 x 75 cl)
