2020 Frescobaldi Nipozzano Riserva Chianti Rufina

這款 Nipozzano Riserva 2020 出自 Castello Nipozzano，是托斯卡納經典的陳釀風格。酒色中等深度，紅寶石光澤。香氣以野生莓果、櫻桃與紅李為主，帶出淡淡紫羅蘭花香，並有香料感的黑胡椒、肉桂與烘焙咖啡氣息，還有一抹宜人的香草與礦石味。

田間與酒莊：尼波扎諾坐落於佛羅倫斯東北的丘陵地帶，海拔與夜間低溫讓果實保有清爽酸度與成熟果香。2020 年雨水充足、晝夜溫差大，灌溉與風土條件造就均衡的成熟度。

釀造與口感：採摘後立即入廠，去梗後於控溫不鏽鋼槽自然發酵並進行充分浸皮，完成澄清與乳酸發酵後轉入小橡木桶熟成。口感上酸度明快，果味純淨，單寧細緻如絲，質地飽滿但不厚重，餘韻持久且層次分明。適合與烤羊排、紅燒牛肉或番茄燉煮料理搭配。推薦開瓶醒酒約 30–60 分鐘，風味更顯開闊。

Nipozzano Riserva 2020 is an emblematic Riserva from Castello Nipozzano, showing classic Tuscan balance and expressive terroir. The wine presents a medium-intensity ruby robe. The nose opens with ripe wild berries, cherries and red plum, layered with floral violet, balsamic notes and warm spice—pepper, nutmeg and a hint of roasted Arabica. Subtle vanillin and earth tones follow.

From the estate: Nipozzano is the historical Frescobaldi property north-east of Florence and this Riserva is crafted to reflect its hillside terroir. The 2020 season delivered good water reserves and cool nights, producing grapes with vibrant acidity and concentrated ripeness.

Winemaking: Grapes were promptly transferred to the cellar, destemmed and allowed to undergo spontaneous fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, followed by extended maceration in vats. After racking the wine completed malolactic fermentation in steel. At the end of the first year it was moved into barriques for further maturation, then rested in bottle to harmonise oak and fruit.

On the palate it is fresh and harmonious: juicy red fruits and a mineral backbone are supported by a dense yet silky tannic texture. The wine shows an elegant medium body, lively acidity and a pleasantly persistent, balanced finish. Drink now after brief decanting or cellar through the recommended drinking window.
