Located at the heart of Chianti Classico, Fattoria di Rodano is a prestigious winery widely recognised for its remarkable contribution to the world of wine. Nestled in the picturesque hills of Tuscany, Rodano is not just a winery; it’s a real testament to Italy’s enduring love affair with viniculture.
A rich history underpins the Fattoria di Rodano winery, with its roots dating back to the 16th Century. The vineyards occupy an impressive 100 hectares, of which a quarter is devoted to wine production. The remaining stretch graced by olive groves and stunning landscapes, which embodies the idyllic Tuscan charm.
A trailblazer in organic vine-growing practices Rodano has been steadfast in its commitment to preserving the biodiversity of their vineyards. This, together with the traditional wine-making method involves zero use of fertilisers. They are pursued to deliver wines that are expressions of the varietal personality the minerality of the ‘terroir', and of each individual vintage.
Bouquet of ripe red berries, earthy tones, and spicy oak nuances. Expertly crafted in Tuscany's revered Fattoria di Rodano estate, it showcases an exquisite balance of vibrant acidity and firm tannins. Expect delectable flavours of dark cherries, wild herbs and a hint of cocoa on the palate. Aged in French oak barrels, the Riserva Viacosta unfolds decadently in a prolonged finish. Perfectly complements robust dishes and red meats. A stellar embodiment of the region’s wine-making prowess.
