Marchesi Gondi at Chianti Lovers 2020

On 16 February the Fortezza da Basso in Florence will host the Chianti Lovers event, the 2020 preview, from 9.30 am for trade visitors and from 4 pm to 9 pm for the public.

We of Marchesi Gondi – Tenuta Bossi will take part in the event, offering a preview tasting of the Chianti Rufina DOCG San Giuliano 2018 and the Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG Pian dei Sorbi 2017.

During the event it will also be possible to taste the wines currently on sale, such as the Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG Villa Bossi 2013: an intense ruby red, with fine colour density and light purple reflections. A striking impact on the nose, with fruit notes of cherry and ripe, macerated blackberry, followed by sweet, well-integrated vanilla spice with balsamic and toasted nuances. The finish reveals notes of liquorice and coffee. On the palate, great structure and character. The wine’s fullness is evident in the roundness and personality of the tannins; the finish is long, with fruity and mineral notes closing on a pleasing hint of liquorice and coffee.
