A pretty red, this boasts cherry, strawberry, rose, mineral and wild herb aromas and flavors. Straddles the fence between elegant and powerful, with the firm structure and vibrant acidity keeping this focused and long. Sangiovese and Merlot. Best from 2025 through 2045. 3,166 cases made, 405 cases imported.

This has a darker character with toasted spices and walnuts with ripe dark cherries and currants on offer. Medium- to full-bodied and firm with linear tannins and steady acidity. Focused and structured with a long, straight finish. A little chewy at the end. From organically grown grapes. Better in two or three years.

The 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva offers up hints of macerated dark cherry, mocha, licorice, cinnamon and new leather. Deep and substantial on the palate, with terrific depth, the 2020 is showing beautifully today. It's a rich, heady Riserva to enjoy now and over the coming years.

92 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous (Aug 2023)

Cherries, wet stones, graphite and balsamic vinegar on the nose with just a hint of soil and wild herbs lead onto a palate that's more stony and red cherry, finished with a fresh, herbal burst of mint and fennel.
