The Fattoria Selvapiana Chianti Rufina 'Vigneto Bucerchiale' is the estate's flagship wine. Francesco Giuntini created this wine, intended for long aging, to best represent the character and quality of the Sangiovese grape, the Rufina and Selvapiana terroir. The first vintage dates back to 1979, the second harvest as a consultant for the young winemaker Franco Bernabei. Vigneto Bucerchiale is produced only in the finest years, fermenting in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 30–32°C (86–90°F), spontaneously with natural yeasts, with frequent pumping over and maceration for approximately 30 days. It ages for 15 months in French oak barriques, 10% of which are new.
