Verona Seminar - Villa Bossi 2015

At the CTC Hotel in San Giovanni Lupatoto (VR), on Saturday 5 October from 9.30 a.m., the Verona delegation of the Associazione Italiana Sommelier will host a seminar including two tastings of the highest quality devoted to two of the most important and prestigious Tuscan DOCG denominations: Chianti Classico and Chianti Rufina.

‍
In this beautiful setting, the AIS delegate for Florence, Massimo Castellani, will guide those present through a full day of study and tasting, discovering the infinite facets that Sangiovese offers across the lands of the two denominations.

‍
Marchesi Gondi will also take part, presenting for tasting the Chianti Rufina DOCG Riserva Villa Bossi 2015. This wine is a deep ruby red with fine colouring texture and light purple reflections. A striking aromatic impact of ripe, macerated cherry and blackberry, followed by sweet, integrated vanilla spice with balsamic and toasted nuances. The finish reveals notes of chocolate and coffee. On the palate, great structure and character. The wine's fullness shows in the roundness and personality of the tannins; the finish is long, with fruity and mineral notes closing on a pleasing hint of chocolate.
