Vino iz 100 % sangiovese, obranem v vinogradu Erchi, ki so ga zasadili leta 1999.
Erchi se predstavi z rubinasto rdečo barvo in gosto teksturo.
Intenzivne in fine arome razkrivajo črno jagodičevje, cvetje vrtnic in vijolic, mediteranskih zelišč. Gozdni podrasti in praženemu se prepustijo zaznavee črnega popra, janeža, nageljnovih žbic in cedrovine.
Suho vino v ustih deluje mehkobno, z dobro vgrajenimi alkoholi. Vino je sveže in mineralno okusno, obenem žametasti tanini izkazujejo, da so še mladostni in se bodo počasi zaokrožali. Intenzivno vino, krepkega telesa in ravno pravšnje, elegantne obstojnosti.
O vinogradu Erchi
Leta 1997 so družini Giuntini ponudili parcelo v Pontessieveju, eni od petih občin, kjer je mogoče pridelati Chianti Rufina. Med leti 1993 in 1997 je Selvapiana najemala parcelo tik ob vinogradu tako, da so spoznali potencial tega območja. Nad ponudbo so bili navdušeni in so parcelo brez pomislekov takoj kupili. Leta 1999 so zasadili šest hektarjev sorte sangiovese (masalni kloni iz njihovega paradnega vinograda Bucerchiale), nekaj starejših toskanskih avtohtonih sort in oljk, ki so bile vse pridelane po ekoloških principih od prvega dne. Prvo trgatev so opravili leta 2016, ko so trte dosegle primerno starost in dale izjemno letino.

Selvapiana is one of the most prominent wineries in the Chianti Rufina area. It is the smallest appellation in Chianti (approximately 600 hectares), but its northernmost location also makes it one of the more specific. The cool winds that sweep through the Sieve valley give the wines a finesse and expression that few Chianti Classico wines can match. Slevapiana is considered to be the best known and most respected winery producing this specific version of Chianti Rufina. Selvapiana is also one of only two wineries producing wine from the Pomino DOC area, an area described by Cosimo III de Medici in 1716 as one of the best for producing this noble wine. This was the first decree to describe the locations, the production methods and the precise definition of the varieties from which Pomino, Chianti Classico, Chianti Rufina, Carmignano and Valdarno Superiore could be produced, and was also the basis for the first DOC wines in Italy. An extract of the decree describing the Pomino lege is also featured on the labels of this wine. Federico Giuntini Masseti manages the estate, located north of the village of Pontassieve, which has been converted to organic processing since 2003. The farm extends over 250 hectares of which 60 are planted with vines (95 % sangiovese), 36 with olives and the rest is woodland. Most of the vineyards are west-facing, with the exception of their Bucerchiale vineyard, which produces the same namesake wine that is their flagship, which is south-west-facing. Selvapiana's location has made it historically interesting, as its proximity to the River Sieve makes the air cooler and cleaner. This advantage was exploited by the Florentine nobility who retreated there to escape the hot summer days of the city. The property, which was built as a medieval castle with two watchtowers, was first converted into a semi-private residence by the Bishop of Florence, from whom the wealthy merchants took over ownership. In 1827 the property passed into the ownership of the Ginutini family, a family of bankers from Florence.
