From the winery: Villa Rosa is situated between the hills of Castellina
in Chianti, and extends over 126 hectares – of which 30 are vineyards
and 15 are olive groves – of calcareous clay soils characterised by
heterogeneous profiles that combine “alberese” limestone with marl
shale. The estate’s morphology delineates three, distinct areas based on
their oenological potential, where Sangiovese is the varietal that has
adapted the most. Ribaldoni is made from the youngest vineyards of the
estate.
Tasting notes: Ribaldoni has a fairly dense ruby red color. Intense fruity
notes stand out on the nose, complementing it with a light and delicate
hint of toasted wood and spices. The mouthfeel is enveloping, the sip is
fresh, vibrant, savory, with soft and velvety tannins. The final is long
and persistent.
100% Sangiovese
14.5% ABV.
