Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The Riserva shows the typical character of Sangiovese with its ripe, even cristalized cherry fruit, tobacco and orange peel. This wine has a promising structure for ageing.

Riecine, Italy
Riecine The Team at Riecine Winery Image
Church archives from 1112 A.D. provide the earliest known record of the wine farm known as Riecine. A nearby monastery owned the land from that date into the 20th century. Close to excavations of an Etruscan township, it is possible that wine has been produced at Riecine for thousands of years. In 1971, John Dunkley, a British businessman, and his Italian wife, Palmina Abbagnano-Dunkley, purchased the land from the Badia a Coltibuono and founded the Riecine label. Beginning their new career by simply making the best wine possible from the grapes yielded by their small estate, the slopes of Riecine did not disappoint them. Within a few short years, Riecine's Chianti Classico was receiving considerable attention across Europe.
