The 2021 Chianti Classico is superb. Bright and vibrant, the 2021 has plenty of fruit behind its lively acids. Dark red/purplish berries, crushed rocks, lavender and rose petal are some of the many notes that inform this explosive, deep Chianti Classico. The 2021 is a stellar wine, especially with a bit of air.

This red is highlighted by juicy black cherry and blackberry flavors, with earth and iron accents. Firms up on the lively, persistent finish. Sangiovese, Colorino and Canaiolo. Drink now through 2028. 3,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.

A crunchy red with aromas of dried flowers, cherry stones, red plums and lemon leaves. Medium-bodied, with chewy tannins and a textured, rustic finish. Drink now or hold.

With vineyards at various elevations in Castellina, Capraia uses parcels at lower altitudes of 300 metres to craft the estate’s annata. It's deeply coloured – perhaps owing to the small percentage of Colorino. Fresh and youthful, dark cherry aromas are accented by anise, cinnamon and allspice. Fleshy, exuberant plum packs the core, balanced by juicy acidity and confidently extracted, ripe tannins. Clean, tasty and ready to go.
