The property itself dates back to the Middle Ages, when it served as a summer retreat for Florentine bishops and aristocrats. Giuntini was well ahead of his time, recognizing early on that this land was capable of producing a great, single-vineyard wine made entirely from Sangiovese. That conviction led to the birth of the estate’s standout bottle: the Vigneto Bucerchiale Chianti Rufina Riserva.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eOnly released in the best vintages, this wine comes entirely from the Bucerchiale vineyard, situated in the Chianti Rufina hills at the foot of the Apennine Mountains. Sitting between 200 and 350 meters above sea level, the plot features clay and limestone soils with vines ranging from 16 to 40 years old. Because the site faces north and experiences a cooler microclimate, the grapes retain a natural brightness and acidity. The entire vineyard is farmed by hand, resulting in a clean, crisp, and elegant expression of classic Sangiovese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.custom-html-container,\n.custom-html-container * {\n  background-color: transparent !important;\n  box-shadow: none !important;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Remove any inherited top margin *\/\n  \n}\n\n.custom-html-container {\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Ensure container has no top space *\/\n  padding-top: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.custom-html-container .global-button {\n  background-color: #35174D !important;\n  color: #ffffff !important;\n  border: 2px solid #35174D !important;\n  display: inline-flex;\n  padding: 25px 40px;\n  font-family: Futura, sans-serif;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  font-weight: 400;\n  line-height: 110%;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  cursor: pointer;\n  transition: background-color 0.3s ease, color 0.3s ease;\n  margin-top: 0 !important; \/* Explicitly remove top margin *\/\n}\n  \n.custom-html-container .global-button:hover {\n  background-color: #ffffff !important;\n  color: #35174D !important;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"custom-html-container\" style=\"margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/chianti-region\" class=\"global-button\"\u003eBrowse our Chianti Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Whelehans Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57379041706328,"sku":"600202","price":44.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6859\/9683\/files\/selvapiana-vigneto-bucerchiale-chianti-rufina-riserva-2022-whelehans-wines-dublin-wineshop.jpg?v=1779978350","url":"https:\/\/whelehanswines.ie\/products\/fattoria-selvapiana-vigneto-bucerchiale-chianti-rufina-riserva-2022","provider":"Whelehans Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
