Fattoria di Rignana Il Riccio Toscano Rosso IGT
A super tuscan with draught
“Il Riccio” is also a member of the Fattoria di Rignana red wine family. Since the 2009 vintage, this pure Merlot - a so-called super tuscan - which grows and thrives on the sunny slopes of the Rignana hills, has been part of the range of red wines on offer. After 21 days of fermentation in stainless steel vats, this special red wine from Tuscany matures for 24 months in new oak barrels - then still in the bottle. An "Il Riccio" in a glass, this is an Italian red wine full of power: the flavor is surrounded by warm aromas, paired with balanced spice. The eye is delighted by a dark purple color and after the supply of sufficient air a wonderful smell of forest berries develops. A perfect wine to spend a Tuscan evening with. And you may ask yourself where the name "Il Riccio" comes from because of the label - even on the 1.5 liter magnum bottle you will see a hedgehog. And "Riccio" is the Italian word for hedgehog. In earlier times this was the heraldic animal of a noble owner of the winery.
Fattoria e Villa di Rignana: a power place in Tuscany with wine, flair & more
The Fattoria e Villa di Rignana in Panzano is a wine-growing estate in Tuscany like a picture book: the property is situated in the gentle hilly landscape of Chianti Classico among vineyards, olive groves and cypresses - a place of strength, as owner Cosimo Gericke likes to emphasize. The history of the estate dates back to the 11th century, and wine was already cultivated here in the 17th century. At that time the estate was owned by the Dè Ricci family of Florentines, whose coat of arms depicted the hedgehog, the "Riccio". And even today you can still find the prickly animal on the wine glasses, at all corners and ends of the estate and of course on the labels of olive oil and wine.
A unique winery with typical Italian wines
At the edge of the golden valley, the Conca d’Oro, lies the Fattoria e Villa di Rignana winery for agritourism. The native grape varieties Sangiovese and Canaiolo, as well as the international grape varieties Merlot and Cabernet Franc, grow and thrive on an area of around 14 hectares. As for the wines of the house, the Fattoria di Rignana, in addition to the Chianti Classico, made from 85% Sangiovese and 15% Canaiolo grapes, also has an excellent Chianti Classico Riserva, made from Sangiovese and Cabernet Franc, a fruity fresh Rosato, the fragrant white wine Bianco and, since 2013, a Chianti Classico Gran Selezione - a selection of the best Sangiovese grapes from Rignana. The super tuscan "Il Riccio" - a pure Merlot - was even named after the heraldic animal, the hedgehog. Since 2014 the Fattoria di Rignana has been awarded the organic certificate. And of course this also applies to the strong, spicy olive oil that is produced here.
For yes-men and dream holidaymakers: wedding and holidays on an agriturismo
In addition the beautiful villa is open to guests from all over the world for an agritour: there are two large apartments with spacious living rooms and fully equipped kitchens, as well as elegant and stylishly furnished bedrooms. Guests have the possibility to book single or double rooms with breakfast, one of the apartments with two to four bedrooms or the whole villa, which is suitable for a maximum of 16 persons. And thanks to the house’s own chapel, Rignana is also an excellent place to get married. If you wish, you can say "yes" under the shady trees. And of course the newlyweds can also spend their honeymoon here in a wonderful way: romantic breakfast between roses and lavender, idleness at the infinity pool with a view to the vineyards and in the evening culinary delights from Tuscany in the Cantinetta next door. And a glass of red wine - perfetto!

Fattoria e Villa di Rignana
Die Fattoria e Villa di Rignana liegt im malerischen Panzano mitten im Weinbaugebiet Chianti Classico. Umgeben von 120 Hektar Weinbergen, Gärten und Olivenhainen liegt das Weingut und das dazugehörige Agriturismo im Herzen der Toskana.
Die biologisch zertifizierten Weine werden ausschließlich aus Trauben aus eigener Produktion hergestellt. Verarbeitet wird zum größten Teil die wichtigste Sorte der Toskana: Die Sangiovese. Auch andere Rebsorten kommen zum Einsatz: die Trauben der autochthonen Canaiolo-Rebe sowie die internationalen Rebsorten Merlot und Cabernet Franc.
Der Chianti Classico und der Chianti Classico Riserva sind die beiden Hauptdarsteller im Sortiment von Rignana – typische Weine aus der Toskana. Seit dem Jahr 2013 wird auch ein grandioser Chianti Classico Gran Selezione gekeltert. Frisch und fruchtig präsentiert sich der Rosato. Der reinsortige Merlot „Il Riccio“ – der ein sogenannter Super Tuscan ist– ist ein treuer Begleiter, um einen gelungenen Abend ausklingen zu lassen. Darüber hinaus wird auf Rignana ein Olivenöl Extra Vergine hergestellt – ein unerlässlicher Teil jedes toskanischen Essens.

Tasting notes by vintage of Fattoria di Rignana wines
2012 Fattoria di Rignana Il Riccio Toscano Rosso
Il Riccio in a glass - a glass of red wine full of power. The nose is surrounded by warm aromas paired with spice. After several swings, i.e. through the supply of sufficient air, develops a wonderful fragrance which is reminiscent of wild berry jam. Blueberries, blackberries, wild strawberries and raspberries combined in one pot to become a delicious jam just before it begins to boil. Entchanting, warming, loving. These wonderful aromas play again on the palate paired with elegant acidity and elegant tannins. Powerful and full-bodied. A wild berry jam!
2010 Fattoria di Rignana Il Riccio Toscano Rosso
Fruit and spice characterize the first impression in the nose: blackberries, blueberries, blackcurrants, pepper, piments, juniper accompanied by delicate vanilla and caramel. Soft and round on the palate, characterized by the terroir of Panzano in Chianti. Again blackberries and blueberries embedded in a fine caramel note, accompanied by some chocolate. Good acidity, mild tannins, everything together harmonious and long lasting.
2009 Fattoria di Rignana Il Riccio Toscano Rosso
Awesome pure Merlot wine. You can feel the power of the 2009 summer sun and the terroir of Panzano in Chianti. In the glass Il Riccio presents itself with dark purple red. In the nose it delivers a wide spectrum of ripe fruits, such as cherries, plums, currants, blueberries, figs, but also spices of pepper, vanilla and caramel, some dark chocolate. On the palate then juicy and full-bodied, almost powerful, again these dark fruits, again these spice aromas. Fine tannins accompany an elegant and at the same time animating acidity. The dark chocolate can be clearly felt in the long finish. Very surprising and successful.

Robert Parker | 92 points "I am happily surprised by the Fattoria Rignana 2012 Il Riccio. This Tuscan red offers proportioned tones of bold red fruit, black cherry, spice and forest bramble. The wine is characterized by dark concentration and thick lines that match its naturally generous disposition. The results are likable and cheerful for sure. All that bold fruity sweetness is balanced against savory spice flavors." |
Falstaff | 93 points "Funkelndes, intensives Rubin mit Violettschimmer. Fein gezeichnete Nase mit Noten nach reifen Kirschen und Brombeeren, unterlegt von Lorbeeren. Am Gaumen viel reife Frucht, satt nach Brombeere, öffnet sich mit feinmaschigem Tannin, baut sich in vielen Schichten auf, im Finale fester Druck." Othmar Kiem |

Am Gaumen geschmeidig und rund, öffnet sich mit viel sattem Schmelz, feinmaschiges Tannin, sehr kraftvoll und dicht, im Finale viel reife Frucht." Othmar Kiem |
