Located in the heart of Chianti Classico, San Giusto a Rentennano is a benchmark in Tuscany for wines of character and precision. La Ricolma, produced exclusively from Merlot grapes grown on the estate's vineyards, represents one of the most compelling expressions of the varietal south of Florence. The 2016 vintage stands out in Tuscany for its particularly favorable climate, with slow and complete ripening that provided structure without compromising freshness.

Vinified in stainless steel and aged in used barriques, La Ricolma favors the pure expression of fruit over excessive oakiness. The wine is characterized by a generous, layered aromatic profile and a refined, mature tannic structure. Generally considered one of the finest Italian interpretations of Merlot, the 2016 vintage received significant critical acclaim, including 100 points from Wine Advocate and 98 points from James Suckling. Excellent potential for bottle aging, especially for those who appreciate elegance over power.
