Riecine 2011 - 1,5l

Riecine 2011 is a refined Tuscan red presented in an impressive 1.5-litre magnum, making it especially well suited to celebrations and shared dinners. A characterful blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino, it combines the bright fruit and savoury structure associated with Tuscany with the added maturity of the 2011 vintage.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays a deep ruby-red colour, with an expressive bouquet of ripe red fruits, warm spices and subtle notes of vanilla. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet elegant, supported by well-integrated acidity and firm, polished tannins. Flavours of red fruit develop into darker nuances of chocolate and coffee, leading to a long, pleasantly persistent finish. The 2011 vintage is now showing mature drinking character, while the magnum format may have helped the wine evolve gradually. It should be enjoyed now for its balance and complexity, with further short-term cellaring possible if stored in suitable conditions.

Production
Produced in Tuscany from Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Colorino, the wine reflects the region’s classic reliance on structured, aromatic red varieties. The available information does not specify the exact vineyard sites, harvesting methods or vinification techniques, but the finished wine shows the balance of fruit, acidity and tannin typical of a carefully made Tuscan red.

Food & Serving
Serve slightly below room temperature, around 16–18°C. Decanting for approximately 30–60 minutes is recommended to open the wine’s aromas and soften its mature tannins, particularly when serving from the magnum. It pairs beautifully with roast meats, Tuscan-style dishes, wild boar ragù, mushroom-based pasta, aged cheeses and hearty preparations featuring herbs and spices.
