Declaring it “the single greatest young vintage I have ever tasted in Chianti Classico,” Antonio Galloni of Vinous calls 2021 “a vintage to buy deep.” This treasure trove of top-scoring, entry-level Chianti Classico wines a terrific opportunity for Sangiovese fans to stock the cellar at a bargain price.
Starting off with a mild, wet winter, the optimal 2021 growing season in Chianti Classico had sufficient rainfall reserves to allow the vines to thrive in the hot and dry summer, and with well-timed periods of rain in late August, the picture-perfect vintage yielded lower quantities of high quality, concentrated grapes expressing pure Sangiovese character with vibrant acidity.
- Earning a spot on Wine Spectator’s Top 100 of 2023, the fresh and refined 91-point 2021 Cecchi Chianti Classico Storia di Famiglia is a harmonious blend of mostly Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon that’s “immediately appealing for its lush fruit” according to the Wine Spectator’s Bruce Sanderson.
- Described as “one of Italy’s ultimate value wines” by Wine Advocate’s Monica Larner, the sleek and refined 90-point 2021 Dievole Chianti Classico offers fragrant, spiced fruit aged in large untoasted French casks, sourced from Dievole’s 100 hectares of organically certified Sangiovese vineyards in Castelnuovo Berardenga.
- Described by Galloni as showing “gorgeous depth," the robust 93-point 2021 Fonterutoli Chianti Classico comes from the renowned Mazzei family’s Castellina in Chianti winery, described as “more powerful and concentrated than your standard entry-level Chianti Classico” by Monica Larner “for those who appreciate more meat on those Sangiovese bones.”
This value packed offer is a terrific opportunity to enjoy some seriously delicious Sangiovese wines from a stellar vintage at an unbeatable price. |
