Frescobaldi Castello Nipozzano Nipozzano Riserva 2022
Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG
November 18, 2025 - Nipozzano Riserva is a defining wine of the estate, capturing the essence of Chianti Rùfina. Primarily Sangiovese with complementary varieties, it reflects the region’s high elevations and unique climate. The name “Nipozzano,” meaning “without a well,” highlights the area's water scarcity, ideal for vine cultivation. Surrounded by mountains and fresh winds, the vineyards benefit from a significant day-night temperature variation, enhancing the wine’s complexity. The result is an incredible value from Frescobaldi.

Attems Pinot Grigio 2024
Friuli DOC
November 05, 2025 - Attems Pinot Grigio epitomizes the spirit of Collio DOC, reflecting the unique terroir of Italy’s Friuli region. Low-yield, hand-harvested vines, planted in marl and sandstone soils cooled by the Bora winds, produce a wine that is energetic, terroir-driven, and elegant. Gentle pressing and low-temperature fermentation preserve vibrancy, while four months of lees aging add texture. Aromas of white melon, cedar, and almond lead to a savory palate of toasted bread, white pepper, and green apple, carried by bright acidity and a crisp, clean finish.

Toscana IGT

Initially dominated by Sauvignon Blanc, recent vintages have seen a shift towards more Chardonnay. This high-end Italian white wine is silky and mineral-driven, fermented in oak barrels of varying sizes, and aged for six months. The result is a vibrant, fresh wine with distinct Mediterranean character, offering a perfect balance of richness and brightness that reflects the terroir of Bolgheri.

Crafted with a gentle pressing and fermentation in both steel and French oak, it maintains balance and complexity. The wine shows a shimmering straw yellow color, with aromas of citrus, pear, and green apple, complemented by floral notes of wisteria, chamomile, and hints of tropical fruit like pineapple. Crisp, mineral, and superbly balanced, it is a true expression of Tuscan terroir.

Castello Nipozzano Montesodi 2021
Chianti Classico DOCG
July 18, 2025 - Montesodi is the ultimate single-vineyard expression of Sangiovese at the Nipozzano estate, created in 1974 from the eponymous vineyard with particularly stony soils. A Terraelectae (single-vineyard) Chianti Rùfina, Montesodi showcases a lively and elegant expression of Sangiovese. Situated at 400 meters above sea level, with schist soils and a south-west exposure, the vineyard benefits from significant temperature shifts, contributing to the wine's complexity and remarkable longevity.
James Suckling - "Plenty of fruit, with light jam, cherries and hints of vanilla underneath it all. Full-bodied, layered and fruity. Not the most complex wine, but shows intensity and focus."
