Melini Selvanella Ris. 1990 - 0,75l

Melini Selvanella Riserva 1990 is a classic Tuscan red that brings together Sangiovese’s regional character with the structure and depth of Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for at least 24 months in oak, it offers the kind of layered, mature profile that made reserve wines from Tuscany so celebrated among collectors and traditional wine lovers alike.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows an intense ruby-red color that reflects both concentration and age. The nose opens with ripe dark fruit, warm spice, and subtle leather notes, creating a bouquet that feels rich, complex, and well developed. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and layered, with a balanced acidity that keeps the mature fruit and oak-driven character fresh and focused. The finish is long and persistent, suggesting good longevity and continued appeal for those who appreciate evolved, cellar-aged reds.

Production
Produced in Tuscany from Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine draws on the region’s warm climate and reputation for structured, food-friendly reds. It was aged for a minimum of 24 months in oak barrels, which helped shape its complexity, soften the tannins, and add depth to the final blend.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for game dishes, roast beef, grilled red meats, and mature cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C to allow the aromas and structure to show at their best. Decanting is recommended, especially if the bottle has been stored for a long time, to help the wine open up and reveal its full range of aromas.

Producer
Cantine Melini is one of Tuscany’s historic wine producers, long associated with traditional Chianti and reserve-style wines. The winery has played an important role in the region’s wine identity, earning recognition for crafting wines that combine Tuscan heritage with a refined, ageworthy style.
