Nipozzano Vecchie Viti
The year 2020 ended with an autumn in which the rainfall of the period was sufficient to replenish the groundwater tables. Winter 2021 was instead characterised by moderate rainfall and mild temperatures. Spring was cool and dry initially, followed by a month of abundant rainfall in May that replenished the water reserves of the countryside. A lack of rainfall in summer helped to balance the water stress of the vines and brought great richness of colour and aroma to the grapes. Beneficial rains, followed by abundant hill breezes, allowed the grapes to conclude their ripening cycle in extraordinary elegance and perfect health. The 2021 vintage was a rich one in which the spirit of the terroir emerged with great energy and vigour, allowing the production of wines that fully reflect the unique character of Nipozzano.
Wine Variety: Sangiovese and traditional complementary varieties
Maturation: 24 months in barrels
Alcohol content: 13.5%
Vinification and ageing: The Sangiovese grapes and traditional complementary varieties were transferred to the cellar immediately after harvesting. Here, once destemmed, the spontaneous fermentation process took place in concrete tanks, after which the wine remained in the vats to complete maceration. Its journey continued in wooden barrels, where the wine remained to mature for the time necessary.The subsequent period in the bottle allowed a greater balance of all the components, making it possible to fully appreciate its essence once the bottle was opened.
Organoleptic Notes: Nipozzano Vecchie Viti 2021 has an intense and vibrant ruby-red colour. The bouquet is complex and elegant, with clear fruity and floral notes characteristic of the grape varieties. The red and black fruit is accompanied by typical notes of sweet violet and rose. Its elegance is underlined by fresh balsamic notes and a delicate spiciness. In the mouth, the acidic-alcoholic component is well-balanced, and the mature tannin caresses the palate, resulting in a lovely texture. An extremely elegant wine on the whole, with a long and persistent finish.
Available formats: Bordeaux (0.75 L), Magnum (1.5 L), Double Magnum (3 L)
