Frescobaldi Chianti
Rufina Nipozzano Riserva 2011 (SKU 107276, WS90, $25.29 tax included)
I bought this wine as a guide for the 3 litre bottle of the 2010 vintage. It was a typical chianti which was light on the nose and palate at first. The wine was dry, so it should be enjoyed with some Italian food. It firmed up after a couple of hours and was perfectly enjoyable on its own. I have to tell you about the 3 litre bottle of the 2010 vintage. I opened a bottle at a special dinner at Oru, Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel. It was decanted for two hours and went perfectly well with the beef tenderloin. The leftover tasted even better the next evening, suggesting that the large format was not ready for current consumption. With the regular bottle, it can be opened now or enjoyed in the next five years. There is ample supply in the liquor stores.
