88 Pts Antonio Galloni - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"The 2008 Chianti Classico Rubiolo comes across as fresh and vinous in its bouquet, until the full force of its rich, exuberant fruit hits the palate. This shows wonderful richness and intensity in its succulent red cherries, mint, rosemary and roses. The beautiful, fruit-driven Rubiolo is best enjoyed while the fruit is vibrant. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2016." 88 points - Antonio Galloni - Wine Advocate

"A very rich red, offering currant and berry notes, with hints of black pepper. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a fruity finish. Best after 2011. 1,535 cases made. -JS" 88 Points Wine Spectator

WINE:
"This red wine is made of Sangiovese and Merlot grapes. After pressing, it was stored in barrels of oak wood. Thereafter, the wine was bottled and stored for further 3 months before putting it on the market. Rubiolo is very fruity and fresh, with sweet and harmonious tannins. It should be served at a temperature of 18 degrees Celsius." -Winery

VINIFICATION:
"90% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot. Grapes are handpicked in wooden boxes, then in the cellar a selection is made of the best grapes. Temperature controlled fermentation with maceration of the skins from 15 to 18 days."

"One third of the wine is aged in French oak barriques (2nd and 3rd passage), 1/3 in oak vats and 1/3 in stainless steel, then blended prior to bottling. The wine undergoes an additional refinement in the bottle for 3 months at controlled temperature." -Importer

WINERY:
"Documents mentioning the Gagliole Estate date back hundreds of years and there are countless ancient legends regarding this property, which continues to conserve a memory of a distant time...The care of our wines has been entrusted to the talents of Dr. Stefano Chioccioli, a famous oenologist who is responsible for some of the most interesting wines to emerge from Tuscany and a diehard fan of the Sangiovese grapes. He is an expert in blending professional know-how with an artistic touch in order to produce an outstanding wine of exceptional quality." -Importer
