Rich, deep and saturated with cherry, raspberry, pomegranate, rose, iron and Mediterranean herb flavors, this red is both complex and intense. Driven by vivid acidity, with dense tannins lending support. There’s youthful harmony, and this resonates on the aftertaste. Sangiovese and Merlot. Best from 2027 through 2045. 6,100 cases made, 4,453 cases imported.

A magenta/ruby color, the 2021 Chianti Classico Riserva kicks it up a notch on the nose, with layered notes of Mediterranean herbs, sweet mixed berries, violets, and fresh leather. The palate is very well-balanced, and I’m impressed with this wine for both its integration and purity. It has refined tannins, wonderful purity of ripe fruit, and even acidity. It is a lovely wine already but should age gracefully over the coming 12-15 years.

A well-balanced, velvety and harmonious riserva. Aromas of plums, spiced cherries and violets dominate on the nose, following through to a medium body with fine tannins. Subtle and juicy, with a vivid stream of berries at the center and a flavorful, lively finish. Drink or hold.
