| | Tasted by Rupert on 2/24/2023: There's a hot, tarry, balsamic fragrance here, and it's beautifully smooth and rich. Probably my favourite chianti. (1021 views) |
| | Tasted by Rupert on 1/14/2023 & rated 92 points: Vanillin oak works beautifully here with the sangiovese, cinnamon and red fruit. Lovely. (976 views) |
| | Tasted by Chitarra on 5/27/2022: Consumed side by side 2019. Like 2 siblings. Dark black fruit. Medium to full bodied. Dense and inky for an annata. More international and tall dark heavy to me. On the third day under vacuum, wine was still totally alive. (1243 views) |
| | Tasted by Nairb Øjram on 3/28/2022 & rated 89 points: Farven meget lys rød og helt gennemsigtig. Ikke så meget stof i den, men den skinner meget. Lidt blålig i nuancen. Duften rigtig lækker ung rød frugt. Tydelig bitterkerne og lidt bitterhed. Kan fornemme træfadene. Dejlig kompleksitet. Rigtig charmerende. Smagen meget elegant med en frisk ung syre, lidt mindre frugt. Lidt tannin på tænderne.Bitterhed. Har en lidt udtørrende effekt. God lang eftersmag. Dejlig elegant vin, som skal ligge et par år endnu, men som mangler lidt i kompleksiteten. Har en anelse ascorbinsyre. Måske lidt for spinkel (658 views) |
| | Tasted by Mads.b.v on 10/18/2021 & rated 90 points: Dejlig oh lige til. En del syre og medium tanniner. (1643 views) |
| | Tasted by DK Amateur on 8/19/2021: Served cool from a newly opened bottle. It showed quite a bit of aromatic complexity (earth, forest floor, cherries and an animal note), good acidity and cut. Fine food wine.
Retasted a month later and same extremely good impression. (1716 views) |
| | Tasted by Andrew67 on 6/19/2021: Decent Chianti Classico. Still a little young, with enough structure to think it will get better over the next couple of year. (1877 views) |
| | Tasted by Mats Olander on 6/12/2021 & rated 89 points: Lätt och enkel. Lukt av röda bär. Passar bra till vitlök, gott. (1789 views) |
| | Tasted by Mr Jupiter on 5/16/2021 & rated 88 points: Typical chianti. Not much ”Bang for the buck ” though. (1710 views) |
| | Tasted by Rupert on 4/7/2021: Substantial plush and plummy, a touch of red fruit perhaps. (1439 views) |
| | Tasted by David J Cooper on 3/5/2021 & rated 91 points: Clear medium red. Medium intense spicy, earthy cherry nose. A bit tightly wound after some air. Delicious textured earthy cherry flavours and a beautiful long dry finish.
Shows well now but there seems to be a lot here for the future. (1567 views) |
| | Tasted by Rupert on 2/18/2021 & rated 90 points: Seemed quite lithe after the brutal Giacosa barbera. But I love the mouthfeel on this. (1255 views) |
| | Tasted by Avid Wino on 1/30/2021 & rated 89 points: An intriguing inky savoury sourness, black and red fruits, stones from summer stone fruit, vanilla from the oak. Satisfying grip, juicy acidity, enough length. Better with an hour or two of air. (1102 views) |
| | Tasted by Rupert on 1/30/2021 & rated 91 points: Sumptuous for a chianti - there's still plenty of bite, but with an opulent mouthfeel. (1296 views) |
| | Tasted by Rupert on 1/25/2021 & rated 91 points: An eye-opener for me. Seemed quite oaky, but fragrant and loads of layers. Brilliant. (975 views) |
| | Tasted by maxima on 12/4/2020 & rated 88 points: Assez acide et dénué d`épices comme j`aime
avoir dans mes Chianti.
Beau fruit mais ça s`arrête là.
Finale pas très longue, c`est digeste mais
pas le profile que je souhaitais. (1623 views) |
| | Tasted by Laurentcg on 5/9/2020: Le 2013 était incroyable, le 2014 trop acide, le 2015 excellent et le 2018 maintenant. C’est toujours un peu plus dans le style bourguignon.
Le 2018 est décevant à mes yeux. Le nez est intéressant sur les fruits rouges, un léger boisé et floral. En bouche, peu ou pas d’acidité je trouve, vraiment sur les fruits rouges. Manque de délicatesse. On est vraiment dans le générique. J’espère pouvoir rapporter mes deux autres bouteilles. (1442 views) |
| | Tasted by Tim Heaton on 2/17/2020: Chianti Classico, Riserva, Gran Selezione, etc., new releases; 2/17/2020-2/18/2020 (Stazione Leopalda, Firenze): Anteprima Chianti Classico Collection, Florence
A classic beauty, with a lovely med/med+ mid palate. Such elegance, such length. Truly a special and breathtaking property, growing in an organic way (with NO shortage of flavor, etc.). Stunning. Bravo! highly recommended
