This shows a darker side of Chianti Classico, with black cherry, blackberry, iron and earth aromas and flavors. Succulent and balanced, with the structure emerging on the lingering aftertaste. Drink now through 2028. 14,200 cases made, 7,500 cases imported.

The 2020 Chianti Classico is bursting with sweet red/purplish berry fruit, spice and floral notes. This forward, succulent Chianti Classico is a fine choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years.

A terrific value proposition, the 2020 Chianti Classico is 92% Sangiovese and 8% complementary indigenous grapes from Greve in Chianti. The fruit comes from across various parcels between 400 and 500 meters in elevation. This sample offers nice intensity and a solid, medium-bodied mouthfeel with sweet fruit, spice, leather and plum. The extra concentration of the vintage is what stands out in this wine. This is an ample production of 170,000 bottles.
