When we took over our small company close to the city of Siena twenty years ago, in the first place we replanted a large part of the vineyards and, on the occasion, above all out of curiosity and a great desire for knowledge and experimentation, we introduced into our viticultural heritage proudly Tuscan, even a very modest quantity of Merlot vines. Since this very small vineyard has reached a good physiological maturity we vinify it in purity and we mature it in a French oak tonneau. The result is a wine of excellence, truly particular and intriguing that we offer, given the small and non-reproducible quantity, in our Personal Edition.
When we took over our small company twenty years ago near the city of Siena, in addition to a very small plot of Merlot, we planted 7 rows of Cabernet Franc. The first in Tuscany, not to be different, but because by studying our terroir we realized that it had those characteristics whereby the Cabernet Franc grapes, if properly ripened and well vinified and aged, could offer us a wine that is not for everyone , but exciting and strongly character. The first years of production disappointed our expectations, a wine that was too herbaceous and tannic but, from the tenth harvest, when the plants reached their physiological maturity, here was the big surprise: a fruity wine where the raspberry replaced the herbaceous, thick, intense and almost moving. Given the very small quantity that we are able to produce, it has rightfully become part of the wines of our Personal Edition.
Our first edition is that of 1995 entirely produced in San Gimignano and that, even today, when we taste one of the last bottles that we have kept in the cellar excites us! Since 2017, when our vineyards in Siena have reached a good maturity, our persevering oenological curiosity to understand how the same blend produced in a different territory would have behaved has meant that, thanks to the fantastic 2017 harvest, we have put to mature a barrique of Sangiovese, one of Merlot and one of Cabernet Sauvignon. After 18 months of blending and, with great emotion, we understood that that very little wine of great depth deserved to be bottled and here is our Rovaio Personal Edition.
Our Chianti Colli Senesi is born from the ancient typicality of this centenary wine aimed at interpreting a new tradition. The vines used are those of the past, only autochthonous and Tuscan, red and white. The Sangiovese bunches, which are 95% of our Chianti, are those of the oldest plants we have in the company, which ripen well beyond the time of the new clones, small and loose bunches, but with a thick skin rich in polyphenols and aromas , crunchy and sugary.
The carefully selected grapes are pressed directly with the aid of inert gases in order to avoid any potential oxidation. The must obtained is clarified with a stop at a low temperature which allows decantation. The clean fraction is sent to fermentation with the addition of a part of skins and indigenous yeasts. During the fermentation phase, regular punching down is carried out which allows the extraction of natural tannins from the peel which preserve the integrity of the wine. At the end of fermentation, the wine obtained is decanted with the aid of inert gases and ages for 3 months on the yeasts that carried out the fermentation, followed by stabilization and bottling.
Lo Janù is the top of the range of Montepulcianos of the company. Hand harvesting of the grapes, maceration on the skins for 25 days, vinification in red and aging in double new barrique for 8 months + 8 months. Compact and deep goblet, of a beautiful ruby red. The olfactory reveals an incredible complexity, ranging from hints of dark fruit in alcohol, to toasted notes that recall hazelnuts, to slightly vanilla scents, to beautiful sensations of tobacco and dark chocolate. The sip is full and enveloping, long, pleasantly balanced. Closing on notes of bitter chocolate.
Pecorino is an extremely representative white grape variety for Abruzzo, and Jasci & Marchesani manages to give us a beautiful expression. Hand picked, vinification in white and aging for 6 months in steel vats and bottle.
Rudhir is another masterpiece of the Jasci & Marchesani winery which, year after year, proves to be a "Master Cave" for Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. Thanks to Rudhir you go to savor a charismatic, fragrant and intense wine from every point of view. When the word masterpiece is used for a Jasci & Marchesani product, it is not an exaggeration; each bottle is an artistic, pure and sensational brushstroke, which in every sip strikes the soul and heart with the typical scents of the mother vine and those small nuances deriving from the various woods of the barrels. The Rudhir vinifies for 18 months in oak barriques and ends its journey after a further two years in the bottle, before being marketed therefore, explosions of flavours, aromas and aromas are the order of the day with a bottle of this bill.
