The 2021 Vintage:

The 2021 vintage was marked by exceptional climatic conditions. After a mild winter and a spring with abundant rainfall in May that replenished water reserves, the dry summer favoured a balanced water stress for the vines. Beneficial rains at the end of the cycle, followed by cool breezes on the slopes, allowed the grapes to finish ripening with extraordinary elegance and perfect health, resulting in dynamic and vigorous wines that fully reflect the unique spirit of Nipozzano.

Tasting Profile:

An elegant and structured wine, with intense aromas of ripe cherries, red berries, violets, and spices. On the palate, it is balanced and harmonious, with refined tannins, vibrant acidity, and great freshness characteristic of the Rufina altitude. Persistent and elegant finish.
